Okay, for all of you out there in blogland, I am posting pics of my “Lo”, using the Weeks Dye Works threads called for, on antique white linen. It’s still not ironed, so forgive me for that, and I’m taking pics at night. The colors are pretty accurate in these though. I’m taking the pic without a flash, under my Ott Light. One thing, I am using two different skeins of London Fog for the majority of the letters, which are different dye lots. I am intermingling them though, so that the dye lot difference isn’t as noticable. I still have some little flower bits to finish here and there in the upper parts where I’ve been working.

It’s so pretty! You’re making great progress.
I started this one recently, using the WDW and I love how it’s turning out so far. Thanks for sharing your pictures

Very beautiful. I’ve never seen it before. Who’s the designer?

I love your Lo – oh, so pretty! I have the book – just need to stitch it. Can you shoot me a note to my email address – I tried to find yours on your blog but didn’t see it.

The designer of Lo, How a Rose is Brightneedle. It is in a Better Homes and Gardens Christmas book. I don’t have the particulars here with me, but I can get them if you need them. I found my book on amazon marketplace.
