New Hall of Fame entrant, Fay

Author Dionne    Category What's New     Tags

Fay from Bendigo rang us late last year to send her first lot of Cottage Garden Threads in Bridal Veil.  This is what she produced …

Doilie featuring Cottage Garden Threads 1100 Bridal Veil.

Bridal Veil is one of our most popular colours. It is from the Springtime Family.

… and then she rang us for some more.

Lovely square doilie in 1101 Apricot Ice, Cottage Garden Threads

I am really looking forward to seeing what she does with the 101 Forget Me Not that we sent her last.

Fay says she is a traditionalist with her work and preferred finishes.  Her preferred stitching discipline is hardanger which usually features a monochromatic finish.  However she says the Cottage Garden Threads are irresistible.  With Fay’s stitching prowess I would have to agree.  To see close ups of her work, see her very own Hall of Fame page and click on the image and then when it comes up click again for a real “close up”.

Thank you so much for sharing Fay, these are beautiful.
