This thread is also an absolute favorite of mine, I simply love the colors in this Lizbeth Vineyard Harvest thread...
It is quite petite, though very pretty, in this size 20 thread...
I have done this cross several times before in size 10, which I actually like better. It's a little like Kirsti's Stumpy bookmark that way...it looks very nice in the larger thread, while most patterns are better done in something finer.
Oh...and I nearly forgot my cup of tea! Well, one for my older daughter and one for me...
That tea looks so good this morning! You can't go wrong with Konior's patterns I think. I'd keep it too!
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful cross! :)
ReplyDeleteI love Mary Konior - and I love this little cross! Very pretty in the Vineyard Harvest thread, too. Which book is this pattern in?
ReplyDeleteHappy Bluebird ~ This Cross (Mark My Words) is in A Pattern Book of Tatting, page 77-78 in my copy. Had to go looking, I work off of a print out of a picture of my first attempt that I wrote the stitch counts on when I realized it was going to be a go to pattern for me -- easier for me to have it sorta diagramed :-)
