Are you a fan of lime green?

It is one of my favourite colours to use in my stitching.  I had not used it much until a couple of years ago when I stitched my Autumn Kaleidoscope.  The pattern was designed in an autumn palette of colours but I chose to stitch it in a summer colour scheme of blues, turquoise, lime greens with hints of purple.  You can see my version in this post. 

After I completed the project I started experimenting with colours using lime.  I came up with Colour #53 shown above.  It is a blend of teal blue and lime green – very bold!

The sample above measures about 2 ½ inches on a hand dyed blue linen background.  Dominique chose 2 strands of floss in Colour #53.

This is a very small element of a larger pattern called Rosetta by Ink Circles.  You will find the pattern HERE.

Expect to see more LIME combinations in the future as I continue to experiment.  Let’s see what I come up with!
