I miss having it, and really feel it is PART of why I have stopped embroidering. Maybe this should be my next purchase too! Thanks for showing it to me!!!<br />xoxo- JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402220963886597754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2933928053397109939.post-40907760774755203172013-03-02T17:36:02.506+10:002013-03-02T17:36:02.506+10:00seems most of us agree that the letters would look...seems most of us agree that the letters would look good done in a random way.<br />Love your samples for the open day, you must have inspired others to have a go.<br />Lamp looks good, I use the light from mine which is a daylight bulb but not the magnifer.margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225676137708827434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2933928053397109939.post-89084080714997789672013-03-01T12:53:38.439+10:002013-03-01T12:53:38.439+10:00Thank you Shirley for you healing words.

And how lovely to see a photo of you "up close and personal" across the cyber-miles!<br /> :-) <br /><br />I too would go with playful, dancing letters on the dog pillows. Sigh. I know you'll enjoy the lamp. I have a table model and it's great.Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04472013513744969837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2933928053397109939.post-14916585144004132592013-02-27T00:47:13.999+10:002013-02-27T00:47:13.999+10:00Shirley, it's good to see that pic of you demo...Shirley, it's good to see that pic of you demoing your beautiful embroidery! I love your samples, too, especially the second one. Great colour and panache!<br />Good for you getting a new light to help with your stitching. I hope you enjoy it and it makes it easier to see clearly. I got a magnifier with a wee light, and I can see all my mistakes very well! lol<br />I like your idea of the letters being a little jumbled...it's a bit more casual and fun looking. Don't work too hard.

I especially love the second photo with the wool roving intertwined in the stitching. Love it. Congratulation on your new light and Mag. glass. I had one for sometime and Love it. It will make such a difference in how you can see what you are stitching. Have a great week.
