My son spent the last weekend in Scotland and he has apparently bought back some traditional Scottish shortbread, but I will have to wait until I see him next to know what they taste like. The emblem of Scotland is the thistle and if you go here you can read all about why this is so.
I had a request to make three thistle bookmarks and they are now finished and ready to post.
The pattern is on the side of my blog, the only difference is that now I split the threads on the top to make them look more like the flower on the thistle.
Still struggling with the green doily which I hope to show you on the next post.

Splendid Scottish bookmarks!
ReplyDeleteGreat thistle bookmarks!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSally these bookmarks are brilliant. Definitely on my to do list.
ReplyDeleteI've always admired your thistle pattern, and I especially like the split-rings for the tassels here. They really set off the design, and would lie flat in a book. Nicely packaged, too! Tatted lace is so versatile!
ReplyDeleteI love your thistle bookmarks!
ReplyDeleteI have to make at least one for myself now. Well, maybe more. Too many books. Wonderful markers.
