Completed on 5/24/2009 on SMF Ice Blue on Silver Lugana w/silver threads. The only change I made was to switch from Whisper thread to Fuzzy Stuff (Fz 15).

Wow! The fabric is beautiful. I can see some of the sparkles and beads. Great pic.

Myrna,
You mentioned that you substituted FZ 15 for the Whisper thread. What is FZ 15 and where can I find it sold? I am thinking about substituting the Whisper in some of the Mirabilia's as I don't like the way it looks, and this sounds like a good alternative. Thanks, Cheryll |

FZ 15 is Fuzzy Stuff and you can find it in most needlework shops. It is produced by the same company that produces the Whisper thread. I have subsitituted the
FZ 15 several times for the Whisper. It looks nice and is a good alternative. Hope that helps!

Beautiful! Once again the actual piece is sssooooooooo much better than the cover pictures. Nora definitely needs to hire a new photographer with a better
camera. It seems like us 'girls' on these boards can take much better pictures than most of the cover shots on charts. Now, I gues I really do need
this one.

Thanks Myrna, I plan on replacing the Whisper White in Angel Proclamation with the FZ 15. Especially since it calls for 4 packets of them.

I think you will like the FZ as it seems to glide better through the fabby. It has a little shiny sheen to it and that is nice.

This is gorgeous!!
I won't ever use white Wisper again, since it yellowed badly in my Crystal Christmas. I did use white Fuzzy Stuff in my latest finish. I have never heard a report of that fiber yellowing. |
