Fudge!

Fudge Dk to be exact!


It was right next to my favorite chair, and I could see lovely blue glass gems over on the coffee table. I thought they'd make a beautiful combination, and I think I was right! The pattern is a variation on the Ice Drop.

Mary Donohue had shown something similar on the Ice Drop Addicts page on Facebook. I wanted to try her pattern, but my Internet connection was so slow this morning, I decided to try and do it from memory. Mine isn't exactly like Mary's, but it's close enough! Thank you for the inspiration, Mary!


I added another motif to my runner project today. I wonder how many motifs I'll get out of one ball of thread? I guess I'll find out!


This silver glass gem just called out for the silver and white ribbon.


I'm surprised at how much I like the white gem with this thread. So far, I have 16 Ice Drops out of my ball of Lizbeth #153, Rainbow Taffy. It's kind of fun to try and make each one different while determining how many can be made from one ball of thread!

  3. Beautiful ice drops, I think we will be going for some time before we stop making ice drops, I like your design not quite the same as Mary's but I do like it. 16 already out of one ball and still going I wonder how many you will get out.
    The runner is coming along nicely. Looking good

  7. It's kind of a coincidence that your fudge drop also mimics the design in your dresser scarf! It would be fun to give your sister-in-law a similar ice drop in the same thread as the runner. Of course, you've probably already thought of that!
