Fabric choice & Threads

I finally got my fabric and threads this weekend. I got 36ct cream edinburgh linen and coffee dyed/baked it (it is a bit darker than shown in pic, pic just doesn't capture the color right) and Deep Sea and Oatmeal GAST. I think this color combo is going to look great. I am stitching this over 1 when i get started on it. Hopefully Wednesday i will get it started.

Introduction and Status of the Beatrix Potter

Hello to all,
I have just discovered this blog for the Beatrix Potter SAL. Thank you Hazel for having invited me.
I have already started it past year, but I actually haven't worked on it and have stitched only two medallions.
I hope to be able to finish it with the inspiration of your progresses and your gorgeus finishes.

That's my pattern kitted: I've chosen a 36ct Zweigart linen and
Sea Foam silk threads from Victoria.

Joining the Group


Hi everyone. I am DonnaTN from Memphis, TN. My sister, Tish, and I are joining the group. We are very excited about starting our Beatrix Potter Samplers. Thank you Hazel for letting us join. Better late than never.

Tish wants to stitch, not post, so I will be posting for the both of us. Tish is a retired elementary school librarian, so there is a strong BP connection.

This is a photo of my fabric and threads. We both have chosen more color than is in the original. I will have to go over to Tish's and take a photo of her choices. I am using Autumn Fields Cashel with a mix of Threadworx and DMC.
