Just couldn't wait to show you this finish that Pat from Dyeing to Stitch did. She asked me convert the DMC I used to Gentle Art floss on Beggar's Night.
Here's her wonderful stitched piece!
DMC GAST
Ecru Oatmeal
3021 Wood Trail
612 Chamomile
610 Old Hickory
3011 Chives
3012 Grasshopper
301 Pumpkin Pie
She also chose to trim this with R&R Cocoa chenille instead of the Cinnamon. I wish you could see all the variegation in the pumpkin pie floss. It's really beautiful. Thank you Pat for stitching this and sharing it with us.

Well, my buddy Ann came back from Market and sent me a surprise box. She went antique shopping while in St. Charles and got this sweet crow candle holder for me. She knows me so well. I put it out immediately.
She also sent more R&R linen, vintage pins and a Halloween inspired kit and chart from Blackbird Designs. Yep, when I saw this "Away We Ride" chart, my heart skipped a beat.
Ann's a very good listener and surprised me with it.
Wonderful gifts from a wonderful friend.
Thanks Ann, you know I love everything and they've brought me many smiles.
Hope you all have something to smile about too.
Enjoy your evening!
Smiles, Nan

I'm loving the new pattern, Nan. The over dyes are a wonderful alternative, but the DMCs are beautiful too.
Lucky you having such thoughtful friends. I'm saving off that conversion - it looks great! Thanks for sharing.
