I bought a quirky mobile phone shaped one from them but cannot remember their name. 10 years later and it is still in good shape!<br />Liyarrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01531807395546337499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-30273076810252167942009-03-01T20:39:00.000-06:002009-03-01T20:39:00.000-06:00Good to know about the humidity and gourd shuttles...Good to know about the humidity and gourd shuttles ~ Kudos to Gina!<BR/>And I bought the Giraffe print shuttle ~ LOL My granddaughter loves all things Giraffe; so, she'll 'inherit' this one..She's quite intriqued by the large Ceramic shuttles, too. Since she does Ceramics at the University ~ had a 3d class this semester. <BR/>I use my larger shuttles as my ball thread shuttle because they hold so much thread. <BR/>I'm awaiting a double shuttle from Randy at GR8..I think I need to rething collecting shuttles. But it's such a temptation...LOL I'm an collecting addict ~ I confess. Not ready for rehab quite yet! <BR/>X BevRidgewomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13268684588250261751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-19057006782448931322009-01-09T20:02:00.000-06:002009-01-09T20:02:00.000-06:00Very nice critique Diane!

I bought a beautiful one from Rosita a few years ago and the following winter, I noticed the tips were no longer touching. This is because of the less humid atmosphere in the house during winter heating season. I don't know if there is a way for those to be sealed so they don't do that or not. Yours looks like it may be shellacked and that might keep it from drying out too much.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-47469632349554025362009-01-09T10:46:00.000-06:002009-01-09T10:46:00.000-06:00Thanks, Diane!

Actually, I did my first purchase of Lady Shuttle Maker's ceramic shuttles because of your blog posts!!! I have a confession to make, too! I did go on over to her site and get a few things I "needed"...she only had the giraffe print shuttle...and still had a bunch of plain ones. I really want one with a leopard print on it. Maybe I'll ask her! I'm going to tat a bunch of linen napkin edgings that will have a lot of beads so I will probably need another large shuttle! LOL! Thanks for sharing this info! :)<BR/><BR/>I LOVE the way you blogged this morning too! That is too funny...didn't even get up!
