I pulled the floss and fabric for Night & Day last night. I think the second down from the left is too grey for tree trunks, so will probably blend them with a couple of browns. They both looked more greenish grey last night. Goes to show not even a daylight bulb beats the real deal.
I dug this book out last night, as I couldn't remember how to pick up stitches on an edge to give Magnus Mouse a snout. It's a brilliant resource.
I much prefer a book to a video tutorial. For one thing, I don't need to hit the pause and rewind with a book!
Have you watched any of Andrew Lloyd Webber's musicals over the last few weeks? A different one is on YouTube every Friday and Saturday for a few weeks. I found out about it yesterday and watched Phantom of the Opera. Search "the show must go on" in YouTube to find it.
Blending colors for the tree trunks is a great idea! I'm like you with books - no need to pause and rewind - LOL - ;))
