Thank You, Teacher

Fabric: 28ct Cameo Jobelan
Design Size: 3.2" x 2.8"
Start Date: June 16, 2002
End Date: June 23, 2002

This gift was for a 2nd/3rd grade teacher who spent her month of vacation (June) substituting for my daughter's class while the regular teacher was in the hospital. The design is a freebie from the Michaels website and calls for mostly DMC rayon floss.

Changes:

I substituted the teal DMC 30993 (which I couldn't find at any Jo-Ann or Michaels stores) with Kreinik 3215 (peridot) #4 braid and 044 (confetti blue) blending filament which I blended; if I couldn't have shiny rayon, then I'd have sparkly metallics instead!
I smoothed out some of the curls so they'd be less squared.
I recharted the "Thank You" lettering using my daughter's handwriting.

I finished this the same as I did with American Apple.
