Kicking around a new bracelet idea


Began on Wednesday with a completely different idea for a stackable, not too fancy, 2 color bracelet design and somehow the result in the photo above happened. I am not sure if it's ugly, or if it's cool and interesting. Well, I'll try the next one with purples, maybe some tweaks of the design, and we'll see how that looks. ☺

Hand dyed thread batch is in progress but won't be ready until early next week. The batch will be "Peace" inspired by the Peace rose.


Speaking of roses, I simply must post this photo of one of my other roses that really posed beautifully for its photo: "Charles Darwin", one of the English roses.


Last week I added a pair of Small Maple Leaf earrings to my Etsy shop. I used red for the center of the leaf, and hand dyed thread from the "Nectarine" batch for the outside edge.

I like your bracelet pattern, perhaps a different colour would change your mind,
very pretty roses

Thank you. The encouragement really helps! I've decided that I do like the bracelet design after all. Currently I'm tatting up several in different colors and plan on writing up the pattern. I've got a very simple bracelet design going also, and planning to write them up together. All this was inspired by a discussion in a "Tollway Tatters" zoom meeting!
