Can't say I've accomplished much since starting this 5 days ago and already thinking of removing that blue wool and go for something more teal. It depends on which Mary Comstock photo I look at, and will show you what I mean further down. The lettering had to be re-worked and will get into that in yet another blog post one of these days.
You've probably seen the antique Mary Comstock rug in the Kopp book and for convenience here it is again. I used the Kopp book to pull my blue wool from the worm bag but second guessing those colors now. Won't worry about the blue issue yet as there's more script to hook at the top first. Then there are photos of the original Comstock Bed Rug and colors which appear more teal. We all know cameras, printers and computer monitors alter what we each see in person. For the life of me cannot recall where I acquired these wonderful photos below of the original antique but have savored each one.
So now I've changed the text color to more teal which I find more pleasing to my eye...me thinks 😕
The brown shows up more warm and rich than the photo in the Kopp book.
And here is a shot of the entire gorgeous Mary Comstock rug and I guess the ladies who made this photo shot happen. Thanks gals!
Who the heck knows what color I'll finally choose. But I'd be interested in your opinion. If Kris Miller still reads my blog I think her vote would be for teal.
Enjoy your evening; it is a chilly once again today and seems mother nature can't make up her mind if it is winter, spring, summer or fall. So will just wear long sleeves and change mid-day, cover at night with a quilt or not ~ crazy weather and it is almost June. No matter the weather happy hooking (stitching, quilting, knitting).
