These are the new materials i chose. i am going to use the green for my 100 blessings. it is "linen-like". it has some rayon and polyester(30/60). it does seem to pick easily. i hope i do not have to many problems. i really like the color because green is my favorite color and this color will go in a couple of rooms.
i have applied my grid. because of the darker color, the normal blue pen didn't work. so, i made a trip to the fabric store to find an alternative and found a white marking pencil with refills. it seems to work ok. hopefully it will last thru 100 squares.
my 1st square!! i have this square on my itibits too. my DH is my 1st blessing. what a great guy. this charm was found while in florida at a garage sale. it reminds my of my DH cus it looks a little geeky and he is! he can fix and do almost alnything. he is a great dad.
these are my DD's, kaitlyn and hailey. they are great girls and i am blessed!
SO, my 1st squares are my family. i am truly blessed by them.
LOVE this start of this project! Never thought about the dark color/blue pen problem. If you are worried about the marks staying, why don't you stitch the grid like P did.

ReplyDeleteOHHHH, Charms! I love charms!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Too Cute!
Let me guess - you are gridding after you stitch/add charms to your squares in case you want to do a double square?
Good idea - dang, seems like I keep repeating myself.

Sweet! I didn't even think of using charms.
ReplyDeleteJust visiting the stitchalong blogs and great to see your squares. I'm totally behind and need to catch up myself!
