Switching gears to something different:
I don't know whether it was the color changes on the other pieces or whether it was the same colors but I need a change. I need to work on something different.
This is a piece I started too many years ago to remember.
Using 50 ct Ivory cloth w Eterna silks and some assorted others being tested for the tight gauge.
The sheen of the Eterna is incredible but I will have to be careful. I don't know what I have in my deep stash for duplicate skeins, if any or if it is still available.
Right now, I just have to make it through the whitework bands. Because I wasn't sure of how much I had I switched to a tatting thread for Band 6, the just started bigger diamond band.
The 50 count and the Eterna wore on me in past. Let's see how far I get this time before putting this one back to sleep. Hopefully, a short sleep. Maybe the WIPocalypse challenge will help me to keep it out and get some bands finished.
I will it will, as this sampler is really gorgeous. The white work is stunning.
