The first one is a Elizabeth Designs piece from JCS 2/07 that I stitched using Carrie's Creations threads. I don't like the cream border on this though so I am going to rip it out and do it in white. The pattern is called 5 flowers and I stitched it on 32 ct light taupe Lugana that we got in those Summer Fun packs 2 summers ago. BTW, the colors I used are Highland Hills (green), flower 1 is dessert bloom, 2 epiphany, 3 purple pansy, 4 Alex's inspiration, and 5 Bliss. The colors are so rich these flowers are really too small to do them justice... It is lovely though!
This is the Papillon piece. I don't care for the color that has the turquise in it in the particular combination. I think I need something with a deeper hue... I don't know, I am still looking at it. *sigh* I need to make up my mind though before I put anything else in because I don't want to be backtracking after part one is finished!

OK, I looked at these up close and really like them both. Wow that first one is really gorgeous. Love those flowers! The Papillon one looks great to me. I like that teal one. The one that concerns me is the pink. LOL But see, it is not finised yet so who knows. OK, where is our other opinion...
Here it is!!! LOL Personally, I like the color combinations a lot. I love how much variation there is in the colors--I think that gives it a lot more depth. I really can't wait to see how this one progresses. I say go with these colors--they really are pretty--and flowers are all kinds of various colors.
