They are really fantastic!

Lovely squares xandra what unusual cards wanda

Just revisiting since thread since about 3/4 weeks ago. Fantastic finishes everyone.

I made an unusual card. The "fabric" is woven right on the card.



This one shows the colours better:

very nice Agi!! quite different too!

Pretty cool Agi!
Faith

That was a terrific idea!!!!!

Excellent mini projects, everybody. Love that gothic alphabet, and the woven card is wonderful. Must remember that -- it's given me an idea for some fibres I've been wanting an excuse to buy from our local mill shop...

What a great idea Agi

Kim, the humbug is so pretty!

Linda, great work, it's beautiful!

Thank you, everyone. The next experiment will be something similar but weaving over a cut out window - that might look even better

Actually, Serinde, I bought that thread in Scotland, both the blue wool and the shiny one. If I remember correctly, we visited loch Kathrin (sp?) and there was a huge wool shop - probably the shop of a manufacture or factory - where they were selling these little bags of sample threads. Perfect for this type of thing.
Oh, nice memories!!

That's what the Aberfoyle wool shop sells! That's it exactly! They are such wonderful little bags of stuff, but I never knew quite what I could do with them. Agi, you are a genius. (You must have been up by Loch Katrine? Rob Roy and all that.)

I love the card Agi, it's just amazing! Great colours too

Yeah, that's the place, I knew it was spellt differently

That's nice Agi, very unusual.

Here are the cards I made for Market day, some time ago. 2 of them didn't sell, so I thought I would pass them along to whomever is doing the next round of charity cards.

They are lovely! Love the contrasting colours! What do you mean two of them didn't sell???

Yeah! That's what I was thinking. I would have bought the lot! They're lovely. I love the colours.

Those are beautiful! Love the colors!
