Lorraine of Colour Complements has chosen a fun way to showcase the new thread colors she's come up with for her line of threads for Spring 2018—she's stitching four sections of Laura Perin's Jewel Box with them!

If you are especially charmed by one of the diamonds or just see what other colors Lorraine put together to make each one, go to the bottom of the page and click on "Previous Post" to see the details of each of the four.
Way to go, Lorraine! Color makes a huge difference, as Debbie Rowley explains so well on her DebBee Designs blog.

By the way, I've used Lorraine's overdyed perle cottons and they are scrumptious!

They turned out great, Lorraine. I think the color combinations you created from your threads are lovely.
