What A Gem Thread Lists!
What I used to stitch my favorite shoes!
Hi Substack Family!
I am so excited to share my What A Gem thread lists with you guys. This was a big request so I’m excited to get into it. These shoes are one of my absolute favorite projects I’ve ever stitched. I wear them all of the time and honestly every time I do, it makes me want to stitch another pair.
These were not the first What A Gem canvases I have stitched so I thought I would share a few smaller projects as well. The first is the opal mini charm. This was a gift from my TGNE partner last year! I stitched and finished it all in one day! I now use it as a scissor fob. I stitched the opal all over in Fyre Werks FT10 White. The effect is exactly what I wanted because all of those colors came through and softened under the white.
The next project which I absolutely loved stitching was her 3D Diamond. I had my alarms set the day this canvas launched! I actually still dont have it back from the finisher but I can not wait to see it! You will need two cards of each of these Silk Lame Braid colors (listed lightest to darkest).

Silk Lame Braid SL138 Glacier x2
Silk Lame Braid SL47 Lavender Blue x2
Silk Lame Braid SL181 Hydrangea x2
And what you have all been waiting for…

Keep in mind I have a large foot (size 10) and I stitched the entire shoe. If you stitch the mule or have a smaller foot, you might not need this much.
