The one that got away!

Jane has already informed the "shuttle hungry" crowd in "tat land" that some more pop-a-bobbins will be in her Etsy shop tomorrow.  However, this is "the one that got away" It had fallen off the arm of my chair when I was testing them, and had gone down the side. Unfortunately it was found when all the others were packed and on their way to Jane.  It is a sycamore shuttle and will be put in the next batch, so please don't ask for it now.  The rose it is sitting next to is the last rose of the season and has just been showered with rain.

The rod that was supposed to be delivered has still not arrived, although it has been paid for, "I'm in the garage" is chasing the supplier up, so I can report that not all the shuttles that were shown in my last post were completed.

Two of Jane's flurrries,  the colours are just right for Christmas!

    That sycamore is certainly a lovely color. The colors on your Flurries are perfect for Christmas -- are you giving as gifts or hanging them yourself?

    Jane I'm sure the shuttle will not get lonely and it will have some more mates very soon!! Well keep your fingers crossed.
    Marty the flurries are going to be given away, it will be sad to part with them but hopefully they will bring joy to others.

    Beautiful flurries! And love the picture of the rose and the shuttle - prettier than a picture postcard!

    So that's how a sycamore will look! We had this huge sycamore on the hill behind us that the kids used to swing from on a tire swing. We all hated it when the tree fell. I often thought if I could get a chunk of it that I'd get a shuttle made. I'll see if there is any salvable pieces next spring. Right now, I still need to get my fallen hickory log cut into blocks!
