Hope you had a great FNSI. I had decongestant, tissues and one little project which I will post about in a little while.Nancy Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01495672268045907181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-35101513634726207272011-09-17T13:27:18.075+01:002011-09-17T13:27:18.075+01:00I think you have done a great job and to me it doe...I think you have done a great job and to me it does not look a mess at all!faith76https://www.blogger.com/profile/14299750720092943526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-84015455652526846762011-09-17T13:21:50.257+01:002011-09-17T13:21:50.257+01:00I generally do my Doves Eyes a little looser than ...I generally do my Doves Eyes a little looser than that, but otherwise I think it's lovely. One thing that can help with ends sticking out (if you're very careful) is to gently press your scissors up against the floss of the Kloster Block before you cut. And if I may recommend a designer? Vicki of India Grace Designs (http://indiagrace.co.uk/) has the best hardanger instructions and diagrams I've ever soon. Plus she uses fabulous colors!!! She's always been willing to email me and give me separate instructions when I'm having trouble. I absolutely love the colors you picked for your hardanger piece too. Pink and blue are some of my favorites!!mdgtjuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06665956958250175869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-28159859030634368242011-09-17T12:54:20.175+01:002011-09-17T12:54:20.175+01:00I didnt even know what hardanger is!
