Thanks for posting the sampler. It is wonderful to be able to click on the pictures and really "see" the roses. I can never remember how to consistently point one end of the bullion.

If there are enough wraps on the needle, it won't 'point' but will look like a plump little garden grub! If not so many wraps, and sometimes intentionally , the last wraps on the needle will point.

Went and bought Old Blush yesterday to plant at my house after seeing yours.
