Mom and I went to get our hair cut this morning, and then I spent the rest of the day playing with thread!
My blog posts will probably be pretty boring for a while. I have quite a selection of buttons and donuts that I plan to tat around with size 40 Lizbeth #669 Poppy Red. My December 1 button ornament pattern is pretty simple and tats up quickly, and I want to be sure to have plenty of ornaments for Christmas in the Village!
I plan on having some Dorset Crosswheel centers, so I'll be stitching up some of them as well.
My 5/8" four hole button stash doesn't seem to be getting smaller, even though I feel like I've been going through them like crazy!
It took me a while to figure out the Dorset Crosswheel variation. This was another one of those times when I wondered why I found it so difficult once I was finished!
Are you going to tat around the Dorset buttons? I like that multicoloured button with plain red thread.
ReplyDeleteI probably will tat around the Dorset buttons, but for now I'm just concentrating on making them look just right as buttons!
DeleteWhat fun looking buttons!!
