Isa V Grand Marquior part 3 finis

I finished up part 3 of my Grand Marquior yesterday on the way home from work.

As you can see, I have started to experiment with the silk for the contrast on the letters. The first test is totally wrong - way too yellow.

I like the one on the very bottom - Bewooded from Vikki Clayton. It's a new color and I think it works good.

Here is my new start - it's the panel designed by Cherished Stitches called With Affection. It's for my Etui. Yeah - color! I'm using Vikki Clayton silk rather than the called for Crescent Colours.
