I have been stitching at least an hour every day these days, thus making good progress on L’Hiver. As far as possible, I am choosing variegated colors when I convert from the called-for Weeks Dye Works to HDF. Old Blue Eyes – a dusty, faded blue – worked out really well for the birds in this design. The original color specified in the pattern is WDW’s Dolphin – a greenish grey. I didn’t want the birds to blend in too much as they do in the original, so I changed them to an old blue. I am happy with the result.
Here is my progress; there is still a long way to go.

Love the blue you are using for the bird in your stitch! Old Blue Eyes was one of the first colors I bought from Vikki; it is such a gorgeous blue.
I must have bought it 6-7 years ago. First time using it! DOn’t know why I waited so long.
