Embroidery advice - picking colors


HarryPotterFan

Recommended Posts

I'm making a cross stitch pillow for a friend who is a big Hillary supporter, and I want to make a few of the words in a different color for emphasis. I'm deciding between shiny blue, shiny red, and  a sort of ombré red.

Here's a pictur of the cross stitch, the color of the pillow, and the color of the threads. Thoughts?

I love counted cross stitch. I LOVE IT! I have been doing it for 25 years, so you are speaking my love language here. And I'd go with the blue, personally.

I asked my mom since I could show her the colors in person, and she recommended blue. I'm done with the pillow except for closing it up and figuring out how to make the stuffing less lumpy.

@HarryPotterFan, have you encountered the invented by the devil to torture embriodererers-the french knot?

Yes I have! I got really annoyed with it.
