Heart's Desire


Yesterday I finished Susan K. Fuller's Heart's Desire in Coral Reef by Tatskool. I love the way it turned out! I also made another Kumihimo scissors fob. This one is out of DMC rayon floss. I love the way it shimmers, and it is so soft!

I feel like summer is just flying by! Is it really Friday already? Dave goes back to work on Monday. Today Alison and her kids are driving down, and we're going to Fairoaks Dairy Farm. I hope the rain showers hold off!

Dave's been working hard in the garden. I guess I should take some pictures and share them!

    Hi Diane, Lovely Heart! I think the Hearts Desire is the prettiest tatted heart! It's so lacy and delicate looking. Nice scissor fob! What is Kumihimo? Is the cord similar to working a Lucet?
    Have a great weekend!

    Hearts Desire looks lovely in Tatskool's Coral Reef!

    The scissor fob you made does look soft and shimmery. What do you use as your scissor point cover? Is that a point protector for knitting needles?

    Ohh.... my favourite pattern...... looking very nice!

    Nice scissor fob. I can't use them as they always get in the way. I am much too clumsy!

    Hi Diane, love the heart! I also enjoyed your tatting shuttle collection - some real treasures, including the cabinets! I am glad you have had some time to enjoy your crafts over the Summer...only 5 1/2 months to go for me :)
