2026 Year of 100 Starts: Start #92 - Blue Dot Carl Sagan by Taylor and Cromwell

This chart also piqued my interest while I was going through my patterns. It's a great quote by Carl Sagan and always timely as well. 


I debated a bit on the fabric and threads, and finally found some only to realize my fabric was too small. Good thing I had doublechecked the size! So, I had to search for something else. I like the idea of having it seem like space, so I decided to try a dark fabric with some opalescence. And I ended up starting this twice:

This was the first start. I tried 2 over 2 with the letters, but I think they're more difficult to read, so I started it again with only one thread:
Blue Dot by Taylor and Cromwell
stitched 1 over 2 on 28ct Nox by Chromatic Alchemy
with Silks4U threads

I'm still not 100% sure this is the right combo, so I decided on one thread only for now. I had already tossed a couple threads from the first attempt, so this was enough stitching on this project for today. I'll have to decide if it's worth adjusting the fabric and threads again or continuing on as it is. Thoughts always welcome!

Hope your stitching had less complications!

Happy Stitching,
