Motif No. 6 and 7
And… I did the Valerie Square hoping to do Eliz Davis’ adaptation to a Ice cream cone. That was after I saw LadyShuttleMaker and TattingChic do it. I got into a little trouble and had to clip off the cone. I’ll do it again in another colour because for now the sqaure looks cute as it is. It is that variegated viscose thread again… Don’t know what size it is. I really need to find out more about that thread. I have too much of it and in 5 colours!!!
And.. this is Julie Patterson’s pattern for the SpringFlower Bookmark. I have done 9 flowers and I could have continued had I not run out of shuttle thread. It is in another shade of that viscose yarn. I really like the feel of the thread. It is so silky and soft and the fact that whatever I do in it comes out so nice. It is a bit like HDT and since I don’t have the slip that came with it, I can’t actually tell you if it is really HDT. My SIL had given it to me when she moved to Canada. She did lots of stuff too and when she was moving she didn’t know what to do with all the threads and yarns that she had. I was newly married then and she asked me if I wanted them. I took them but didn’t ask what type they were or what she had done with them. She didn’t tat, that I know for sure.
Ais your Valiere square looks great and your edging is lovely. I can see improvements with each piece that you are showing us. It's just great! I'm so proud of you!
The thread is beautiful. I did before the spring flower bookmark but it does not sit right – I keep have to make sure it's all in the row.
Very pretty…keep up the lovely work!
<b>Tattingchic</b>: 😀 Gee Thanks… makes me feel really good to know that I am really improving.<br><br><b>Zarina</b>: Yes you are right the spring flower bookmark flowers keep turning around. I wonder if inserting a lace would keep it still… <br><br><b>LadyShuttle maker</b>: I really love it when people comment just to encourage me. :)Thank you.
