Day 102: Plaid

Day 102: Plaid


Today's button is really another doodle button. I do find them relaxing! Although I didn't wear my brace in bed last night, so my thumb has been aching a bit today. It's a good excuse to have a chill-out Saturday! The colour contrast is stronger in real life, it seems a little light in the photo.

I apologise for another late post. I have been so busy with writing - and today, making cheese! - that it wasn't until I sat down that I realised I hadn't actually written the blog!

Today's button is another on the not-yet-available star mould. We have to get them sorted as I want more for my stash ;) . In the doodle button style - just keep adding as you go, just as if doodling with a pencil. It is very relaxing. I expect tonight's will be in the same vein.

Day 100 - Intrecciata

Day 100 - Intrecciata


100 days! Gosh, where did that go? Although like just about everyone, I am currently having difficulty knowing what day of the week it is, let alone how far into the year we are already.

I hope you are keeping well.

Today's button uses a new, smaller version of the new star mould. We had intended to have released these by now, but have not been able to cut stock with lockdown. Hopefully we'll manage to sort it after Easter and have some manufacturing time. I've also used perle No 12, and the pale green is some No 16 perle in my stash.
