A Colour Commentary
Every once and a while someone on the HAED board asks a question about a specific colour in a chart because it seems the colour does not fit in. I know this happens to me all the time. I can be stitching a face and all of a sudden I am using green or blue. Shadows are often burgundy and grape when I am expecting greys. It is just amazing to me as I complete the section how well the colours work in the end. I can use the same colour in different areas of the chart surrounded by totally different colours and the same colour has a totally different feel and impact. The effects of colour is a mystery to me and one of the things I love best about stitching.

Totally agree with you terri..
it never ceases to amaze me how 647 can fit into most faces, but it always does, and never looks out of place, it it the shading thing, and it is a bit of a magical mystery to me too
