Kit received – all materials accounted for – now I have to collect the ‘have on hand’ materials – looking forward to starting.

Hi John: I’m getting my COVID shot in the morning and then I’ll drive up to 3 XXX’s tomorrow. I hope I don’t drive Pam nuts… but I’m going up to select treads.

John…when I received my booklet, I was surprise to see that I had completed this Kimono 6 years ago but in monochromatic palate. It will truly be a revisit for me.

John, I think I’m ok on working out my threads. I’ll send a pic a bit later for you to see. But I do have a question concerning the threads. Let me first say that I am in a NP Shop desert. Like many my closest shop is 2 hrs away. I am also “woman” who likes to have my bases covered. I heard you about NOT reading pg 3. But could you…[Read more]

I just read the entire thread and found the instruction very helpful. Also the website you suggested has a palette generator. I put in the primary color in my overdyed and it created multiple palettes that I can use to pick the other overdyed. It is almost like using a color wheel that is used in quilting. What a blast!

I would like to buy Judy Jeroy\’s Technique Basics – An Introduction to Crewel and Surface Embroidery

I\’ll be fine – moving this next two weeks so focus is on other things. Weather in Texas is is cool today so this makes it easier to manage. I hate letting the movers move my craft room and that is unfortunate because that\’s were the bulk of my \”stuff\” is LOL

Good morning! I have received my booklet. Thank you! It looks well written and the diagrams will be very helpful.

Picked this beauty up from the framers today. Libby and Mary did an awesome job. This was an EGA class, “A Frenzy of Fringes” by Jeannette Carmichael.

I got my Kimono instructions….Thank you so much
