Still Frogging Around & Thank you!

I am still working on Frogging Around and put in some more. I'm not sure if I like the threads the letters are done in or not, but I don't want to pull it out (frog) them again. Here's the latest Pic. I just finished adding the "G" in "Go" and the "F" above it.






I still think this design is cute, just didn't really want to stitch tonight, but did add those two letters then called it good. LOL

I think I know how to make those letters stand out better, backstitch them even though the chart doesn't call for it. That should help, specially if I use the same dark color that is in the variation floss. Will have to give that a try.

WOW I have been pleasantly surprised by the many many comments and how happy people were that I clicked the "Follower" thing on their blogs. If I had realized it helped the authors see who follows their blogs, I would have done it sooner. Oh well, better late than never I guess! Thank you all!

    Oh, yes, your frog is very cute. You might like the color better when you finish stitching the letters, they can make a nice background for the frog.

    I think your right, outlining the letters will make them stand out more.

    I see what you mean about the letters, but my first thought was that you could backstitch if you could find a dark colour to match the dark in the variegated thread - so that just might work - great minds think alike and all that. I love this design :)

    I like your progress on Le Frog... maybe stitching him will appease the stitching gods & keep you from having to frog on other stitching. ;) Nice design!

    Thank you all very much!

    That is what I am hoping for Siobhan. It certainly can't hurt. LOL

    I agree Es, great minds think alike.
    No stitching today because I really hurt and didn't sleep last night. So I am off to bed now.

    that is a cute design but I would change the floss colour, the words do disappear but perhaps BS in a slightly darker colour will help!
