TDITM ’25 Color Guide: Piper Piping
This is the palette I used for my eldest daughter’s Twelve Days set during my 2025 Twelve Days in Twelve Months challenge. Below are the detailed felt/floss color guides for you.
Benzie Design floss, sequins, and beads are an absolute joy to work with! They will be very happy to help you find what you need.
