I've the perfect thread for this one, I love it, smooth and delicate. Hand dyed, it's a gift from the Colours' Fairy Fox, there's a tag but I'm going to explain the reason for the title in this post...
Just to have fun, can you guess the book, the pattern and the thread?
A clue: nobody can say who the not named author of the book is!
I hope next week I can show the finished edging and I'll show you what it is written on the back of the tag...
Ciao,

P.S. I put a picture of the dress I sewed, in this post: international drop addiction

An intriguing edging. I'm pretty sure I haven't seen it before so no guesses from me!
ReplyDeleteYour edging is unique and beautiful!!! :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I've made that edging before! It's number 39 in "A Tatter's Workbook," author unknown. She used to charge 10 cents a yard for making it. I'm afraid I don't know anything about the thread though.
ReplyDeleteBrava Martha! Thank you :-f
DeleteThis is very lovely, and now I hope we will be able to obtain this pattern instead of just wishing we could :)
ReplyDeleteLovely edging. I've looked at it many times, but never tatted it ....yet....

It looks lovely as does your dress! Very, very nice.
ReplyDeleteItaly is quite warm today and the wildfire on Vesuvius is pretty scary looking!
Lovely edging, I think it might be by the new book you brought that you thought might only be the cover, by Gun and the surname starts with a B
