I purchased some lovely HDT whilst in the USA plus I was also gifted some, thank you Sue Anna. It is just the matter of finding enough time to use them and to make sure that when I do it is for a well tried and tested pattern as there is nothing worse than chopping up beautiful thread!!
Jess's thread was so tempting and I do like the way that she puts strong bold colours together. Here is a necklace made from one of her skeins called Havana. This week she is offering free shipping to all international buyers, so if you don't live in America take advantage of such a great offer.

And then I made a brooch to match
When I was in Singapore there was a jeweller with my initials
And in America this.........
I wonder what I will find on my travels this year?!
Lovely Necklace and brooch.

WOW, I do love Jess's colours - I'm off to snoop in her Etsy shop!!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I love Jess's colors and your choice of beads.
ReplyDeleteI like how the buttons are subtle - didn't even see them till I blew up the pic. Nice!

Wow, amazing necklace, I love the way the yarn turns out to be. Lovely brooch too!
ReplyDeleteSuch an attractive pair. I especially love the brooch!
ReplyDeleteI think that is my favourite necklace of them all! - wonderful colours.I've been trying to think of a shop in Brisbane called "Sally"- so that you will come here! - but I don't think there is one.
ReplyDeleteI love anything made with HDT, and your new jewelry is especially pretty! We have a Sally near us. I sometimes go in to buy glitter nail polish for blinging my shuttles. ;-)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colors and beautiful work!!! I love both the necklace and the brooch! Those shuttles of yours are really flying! And it appears you will be 'flying' again, too! Sounds exciting!
ReplyDeleteI love that brooch! I keep meaning to make one- you are very inspiring! Gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteWe have Sally's beauty here too if you want to check it out. : )
Beautiful set. Fox is right, I didn't notice to buttons at first either.
ReplyDeleteTat-ilicious' free shipping is great. I just got some HDTs from her yesterday. The necklace and brooch tatted in Havana are gorgeous and will brighten up any outfit!
ReplyDeleteSally, the necklace is very pretty. I can never figure out how to tat this complicated-looking piece of treasure, so I'll just stick to admiring your work. LOL
ReplyDeleteHahaha, didn't quite hit me that SK are your initials. Wow! Perhaps we'll spot more on your next trip!
Great necklace and brooch!!! :)
