woodland_miniatures Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 A belated Valentine to my friends here in the Greenleaf Forum: I've activated a coupon that can be used on anything in my Etsy Shop (Roslyn Treasures) for 30% off - just type in the coupon code GREENLEAFPALS during checkout to get this discount.

havanaholly Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Mary, some of those pieces look like you've found some silk sewing thread to work with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodland_miniatures Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Holly, I do actually have a selection of fine silk sewing thread in the most wonderful shimmering colors, but am still getting the feel of working with it. It is almost too fine for even my tiniest crochet hook LOL, but I'll get the "hang" of it sooner or later. Have made a few small doilies with the white, but don't have any in the shop at the moment.

havanaholly Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 The way those Victorian lace afghans drape surely does look like silk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodland_miniatures Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Nope, just really nice, high-quality cotton quilting thread. I adore the Thimbleberries line of quilting fabric and matching threads - got "hooked" on them when there was a quilting shop right across the street from me in my tiny town. I literally wept when the owner couldn't make it work after a couple of years and closed the shop down.... :weep: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterine Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Well, I tried to step aside and give someone else a chance, but I had to nab that lovely new afghan! :wub: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodland_miniatures Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Oh, you two are wonderful, and I'm so happy to be sending goodies to both of you! (gee, guess I'd better start laying out some more interesting colors and see what calls out to me to be put together LOL!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
