What To Do

Great news on the Morimoto front! 
Two rows snd some connectors to go and I'm done ! Yes!


As usual, in the middle of the fuchsia ball the #40, it is intermittently a #60, #70 and then back again to a #40. I tossed some remaining balls; life's too short to worry about using up defective stock.

I’m wondering if I should start the Renulek over again. The colours... yucky...

 As it is, I'm not liking the beads and I can’t believe I ordered the thread colours I did...

 What do you think? Start over on different thread? I wouldn't add beads either if I start over. Early days but I must decide.

    Morimoto looks fantastic! All I can say about the other is that you'd better decide before the rounds get too big.

    Morimoto's is beautiful. What colours? I've no doubts, I'd ask the Colours' Fairy!

    I like the Morimoto! I like the yellow and the center of the Renulek. Maybe continue on with those and cut off the fuschia?

    Your colours are lovely on renuleks mat it's up to you if you don't like them better to decide now before you do too much more and then say you don't like it.

    Morimoto looks wonderful - can't wait to see it when it's finished. The other one....can't help with that decision, but it's easier (for me) to keep going on a project when I like the way the colors look, like the thread....beads....etc. I've found that even when I really DON'T like the color(s) I'm using, even when I think it's just awful and have to force myself to finish it, SOMEBODY will love those same colors. (Black and yellow, for instance - I'm just no crazy about the combination, but I have a friend who loves the way they look together, and wears black and yellow quite often. I guess colors/color combinations are truly an individual thing.)
    Whatever you decide to do, it will look lovely when it's finished.

      Stephanie, I do that as well. It's a rare project indeed that I will not finish, whether I like it or not. : )

    Thanks, Everyone, for helping me decide. I am starting again, and just keeping the centre as is without the fushcia. : )

    Your determination is inspiring. I wouldn't dare start again knowing the hours it's taken me so far :). But, you wouldn't enjoy tatting each round if you didn't like the colors to this point!

    The Morimoto is looking great! The other - well, if I don't like the colors I have a terrible time working on it. It looks like you are starting over, which if you don't like it now is probably a good idea.

    p.s. - if you do decide to stick with the colors you started for the WIOSNA 2015 doily - check out Martha Ess's blog - she's got pink, yellow and *green* so far. Maybe adding some green would improve the way you see it? Of course, I made a mistake - attached Row 4 wrong somehow - and ended up cutting off both the partial Row 4 AND all of Row 3. :-) Didn't like Row 3 in that color when I did it, but was going to leave it and keep going....until I made a mistake, then I decided I may as well replace Row 3 with something I liked better while I had the scissors in my hand. :-)

    There is nothing wrong with the colors that you choose for renulek's doily. But , if you don't like them, stop!
    The morimoto is a classic!
