Last year during our Super Duper Challenge I started this project on a lovely 36ct Smoky White linen with Antique Black silk.
And I'm not impressed with the result at all! I would like to change colors just have no idea what to choose... It's all about kindness... What do you think? What color is kindness?
So long my friends,
Evalina
I would do a pretty blue. hugs
ReplyDeleteI think of kindness as being both gentle and strong. I would stitch this in a coral.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty design... And I love your post today too! What is the colour of kindness? For me is a happy colour so unfortunately not black! But that's my opinion! I see what the design is in black, maybe it's to be seen as a silloette? I think I would just put a spread of colour in front of me and choose the one or ones that smile to me! But I am rather odd! Ha ha
ReplyDeleteGo with what you feel is right... I am sure it will look wonderful 😊

I see it as being a gentle, warm shade of pink or a beautiful, but slightly subdued shade of blue.

Hmm - that's a tricky one and as this design seems to pay homage to the past and "blackwork" changing the colour might completely change its purpose? Leaving that to one side - my colour of happiness would be something bright like a yellow or light orange :)

ReplyDeleteI agree that kindness is not black. I like the idea of pink or blue. Or even a dark blue so you keep the silhouette..
ReplyDeleteThe color that popped to mind ws blue.....a beautiful, soothing shade of blue.

Evalina - Thanks to you for the pattern, I was going to do the black as a memorial to my Husband, but changed it to a deep, midnight blue so as not to lose the silhouette appearance. Kindness to me would be a soft color...warm...golden rusty coral but not too dark.... shows you have perplexing selecting colors can be...
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, dear one...
Maybe kindness is golden. I look forward to what you choose - all the suggestions sound lovely to me.
ReplyDeleteA variegated would be cool. I like the black though
ReplyDeleteI think a variegated with lots of color changes would be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteFor me kindness is a rainbow of colours! Sorry I'm no help, but this is a very thought provoking and lovely post.
