I'm putting together a LOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG post about my birthday, birthday trip to Disneyland and our two-week vacation in Utah (including stitchey news). Well, maybe it will be several separate posts.
Anyway, it will take a while. While I'm working on it, though, I'd like to send out a call for help. I bought two Victoria Sampler charts and tried to get the fibers at Shepherd's Bush. They don't carry many of the flosses the charts call for and I don't blame them. $6.20 for a skein of fiber - you've got to be kidding me! I'm sure they're beautiful and lovely to work with but - sheesh - I'm a teacher for heaven's sake.
Anyway, I'm ready to sit down with my chart photo and my DMC floss chart and try to make substitutions but thought I'd ask y'all first if you know of a website that has already done this for me.
Thanks!

"When you see the numbers of your date of birth repeating to you, it is often an indication that you are to concentrate and focus upon your true life purpose ... your reason for being ... your soul mission. Seeing your own birthday is a reminder of why you were born and your reason for being on the Earthplane at this time."
Constant. Yeah, I know. How to figure that out.

We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over; so in a series of kindnesses there is at last one which makes the heart run over. - James Boswell, 1777
True.

To think about.
"When does your self cry out so loudly that you can't avoid its cries any longer?" (from a blog, author unknown)
And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. Anais Nin

I'm glad you're back ;)
Aha! Chiloe beat me to it! It's a great site that will translate any fiber to any fiber (if there is a close match). I used it to translate Crescent Colors to silk.
