motifs no 2 and 3
Here is motif no 2, It is made in a thread called Perfect Quilter made by Superior Thread Company,
It is my thread from Scott Hoover, lovely to work with, I want two motifs the same so I used a mucky peach coloured thred of almost the same weight and kept it as core thread by using shoe lace trick.
The motif pattern is by Jennifer Williams and was published in the Ring of Tatters Spring 2006 newsletter.
This motif no 3 (I must ask my husband for photography lessons) The motif is made fromHakelgarn sise 20, and the candle is Omega size 30.
The motif is a triple layer done in one round based on Mary Maynards design from her book Rings of Flowers...a lovely book to play with.... The candle decoration is one of my very un-clever designs, but they are getting better, honest !
The threads came from Lily Morales in the Thread exchange. She also sent me a little ball to die for in a mellow peachy/terracotta colour. It is called Majestic and is size 80, I am being very ambitious and making a bookmark by Mary Konior. I will post it in about three years time when I finish it.
I will get Ron to take another photo of the green motif, it really is rather pretty.
I have had some really beautiful thread from Suetta, Hand painted, I will make something as soon as I have finished drooling over it, she also sent me a shuttle, very unusual, I havent seen one like that before, Will post it as soon as I make that camera realize that I am boss!!!!!
