Request: converting Ehrman wool colours to anything else

Here's another idea...not sure if the previous note was posted...anyway, Ehrman here on the East Coast will send you (for a fee) their wools. I believe you can find the USA phone number online or on the papers that came with your canvas. I would bet that they could even choose the colors for you, as it is their canvas, especially when you explain the situation.

Hi! I would go with Appleton tapestry-weight wool. Go to buttonedup.com and you can see all the Appleton wool colors right online. You can also call their shop---it is way out on the West Coast of Canada, so pkgs do take a LONG time. Their staff, though, are helpful and so pleasant. I think if you google "Appleton wool," you may find closer Canadian shops, but Buttonedup has the best color representations.

Good luck!


Odd...wondering what it is with the old posts. The original request for
this was from Aug. '09!

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.

I know. I was thinking the same thoughts. And for some reason can't see the info on the poster. Oh well.

Betcha it's people from SewGirls who are too dumb to look at posting
dates to realize they're answering questions that have long-since been
answered....

i went to have a look and check that out, seems, as far as i can see,
sew girls is defunct. they are now inspirepoint.com.

your posts still show - minus the signature - mine don't and haven't
since i contacted their attorney and told them i wanted them to set
their thieving up not include me. that worked.



I told them, too, but apparently they didn't pay attention to me because
I didn't come across as big a GOW as you.

Well, since it's visible, maybe my comment above will remind the idiots
to look at the ORIGINAL posting dates and not just the date the question
appeared in their newsfeed.
