I am referring to the cross stitch sample....the other two I love. They are on the table as I am mounting them to keep them safe. I know what's wrong with the cross stitch....it's the colour. I worked from a bought pattern using the colours given with the pattern. Next time I will amend....That's the whole point of sampling isn't it...try it, decide if it works. If it works you then extend it,develop it. If it doesn't work....well I do generally keep but occasionally I throw away. This one is a keeper... not for purposes of developing, as a reminder of those colours I don't like.
