signature colors

full palette
One of my goals for the year was to create a signature color palette. Back in February, I chose colors, and have been working primarily within those 23 colors. But when it came to choosing floss colors, I never actually decided on the shades that I wanted to be using.
colors - full
Yesterday my sister and I sorted through all of my floss, and found the colors that were just right. I'm proud to say that when I imported the photos and placed my color samples (from February) over them, they are a near perfect match! I think I've gotten to know these shades!

This is what each grouping of colors looks like, along with their DMC numbers:
colors - light
colors - bright
colors - deep

  5. great colors! I look forward to a time when I can define a signature palette; I have been embroidering (again) for less than a year, so I am still experimenting at this point. Thanks for sharing ~ you are so inspiring!

  6. I use to make friendship bracelets out of this stuff. You're making me miss my collection of beautiful thread! That first pastel palette is my fave.

  7. What a wonderful idea. I tend to use the same color groupings but I have never thought about putting together a signature palette. You are so clever.
