But of course it's your project and you are able to see it in natural light where we are just seeing it on the monitor.<br /><br />Please let us know what you decide to do and share a progress picture. <br /><br />Cynthia<br />Windy MeadowCynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16815507581216920872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825879933907079057.post-24193478331812636022010-01-07T20:20:09.920-05:002010-01-07T20:20:09.920-05:00I like the darker version.

The contrast makes both the lighter and darker flowers more interesting, doesn't it?<br /><br />My earlier comments are just part of my evil plot to get Jeanne and her readers to try painted canvases. Instructions? Thread lists? Conversion charts? Who needs 'em! Give me a painted canvas and a pile of threads and we are in business!<br /><br />Jane, exits with her evil laughter ringing in everyone's ears....The Chilly Hollow Needlepoint Adventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10226040212425559526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825879933907079057.post-60204885089539806482010-01-07T08:26:27.664-05:002010-01-07T08:26:27.664-05:00UGH, frogging queen stitching will not be fun, but...UGH, frogging queen stitching will not be fun, but I do think that you're right - I think that I like your choice of the lighter version flower.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792171420098351093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2825879933907079057.post-25542063807620897442010-01-07T07:32:25.107-05:002010-01-07T07:32:25.107-05:00Think I prefer the lighter flowers - to me, there ...Think I prefer the lighter flowers - to me, there isn't enough contrast with the darker one.

With the lighter version, your eye is drawn to the 3 darkest flowers on each side and then you see the lighter flowers - I think the contrast is too much. With the darker version, there is a better color continuity and (at least on my screen) it appears that the darker verison of flowers looks better with the 5 flowers on the bottom.<br />LoriLorinoreply@blogger.com
