"Roses" in the snow

That's genuine Wisconsin snow there, with a fresh batch of my HDT "Roses" crammed into a glass vase on top. Just finished stocking my Etsy shop - with the hand dyed thread, not the snow (grin).

  6. Thank you, Heather - I'll keep an eye out for those bookmarks.

    LOL, Diane - if only the folks who have more than enough snow could figure out how to sell it to folks who "need" the snow - don't think it'll happen in my lifetime, oh well. Yet another 4-6 inches of the fresh stuff today...sigh.

    Valerie, I'm glad you find the colors cheerful!

    Thank you, Tattycat. If I recall correctly, you are one of those folks who'd love to get the snow included :-)

    TattingChic, glad you like the picture. I am lucky that the sun happened to be shining at the time.

  10. Thank you, RainbowRose, but I'm not Sherry, I'm Marilee :-)
    (Please don't be embarrassed, it's a very common mistake, LOL. We both make HDT.) Sherry's blog is at

    Unless you mean the other Sherry, she also has a blog
    http://celticdreamweave.blogspot.com/
    Are we confused enough yet? LOL!

  11. Clyde, I'm glad to hear that the HDT brightens your days.

    So, Tia, you are the one! I knew somebody had asked for the "Roses" HDT to come around again.

  15. Thanks, Elizabeth, I hope you'll be just as pleased with this new batch.

    BJ. glad you like the availability of solids. I think there are all sorts of creative possibilities by combining solids, and/or white, with the variegated threads.

    Thank you, Tia, it's on the way!

  18. Tia, the totally amazing delivery speed is all due to the efficiency of the U.S. Postal Service - those hard-working folks deserve a big round of applause!
