Fixes
Some early copies will have an error in the color key. Please note that the symbols for Sunset and Garden Gate are switched. Sunset floss should be noted as an 'open' diamond shape, and Garden Gate floss should be the solid circle symbol.
Good Every Day
I'm typically a "glass half full" kind of gal so this sentiment suits me perfectly! The pretty design shown stitched on silk gauze is framed by a teeny sawtooth border worked in little satin stitches - and that pretty burl frame is just right!
The chartpak also includes a 'Classics' version adapted for linen/evenweaves, which is finished as a small needle book.
