Designs like yours just inspire me so much. I love creativity! Yes 10-meters is great for cross stitch but doesn't go very far in other techniques...I know Kreinik is working on adding cones to their website (previously cones were a special-order item you had to get through a shop).

Marshmallow is a bit surprising as a name for that sparkly thread but yes, I agree and I like it a lot. Thanks for the tip on avoiding colours with a C in them. I look forward to trying Easter Grass but I'm pretty happy with Marshmallow. I have tried Braid #8 in a pale sparkly blue and it does look pretty tatted up but it may be a bit fragile for tatting as I broke it while pulling a ring closed. I would need to relax tension if tatting with the braid. Unfortunately there is only 10m on a spool which can make it a bit expensive for making lots of snowflakes. Nice range of colours though!Frivolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10318670621310820581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114660986925655424.post-74481111447271250412015-11-16T15:38:45.000+00:002015-11-16T15:38:45.000+00:00That's beautiful!

Easter Grass is a flatter material, so it will look and may feel a bit differently, but still has a nice soft sparkle. I would avoid any Kreinik color with a "C" like 032C as those are "corded" colors and might be too stiff for tatting. The filament is great for carry-along, or use the Braids (like #8 Braid) by themselves. Have fun, love these snowflakes!KreinikGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06029775278008499638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114660986925655424.post-67743970481434328922015-11-15T22:01:14.407+00:002015-11-15T22:01:14.407+00:00Yes, thank you, it's Sunday now and we're ...Yes, thank you, it's Sunday now and we're back in business… phew!Frivolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10318670621310820581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114660986925655424.post-22485380629924280332015-11-15T22:00:03.919+00:002015-11-15T22:00:03.919+00:00Good idea Uoga - I'll try it too. :-)Good idea Uoga - I'll try it too. :-)Frivolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10318670621310820581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114660986925655424.post-82857320257619145472015-11-15T21:42:31.643+00:002015-11-15T21:42:31.643+00:00I had looked all over for the DMC thread.

You've got a wonderful talent for making your "inspired by" snowflakes look so much like what inspired them and I'm sure this is what gives them such wide appeal. I've not seen a single one I don't love. I'm grateful to the lovely person who sent you that book too because it looks like now we're all going to get not just "Frivole's Christmas snowflake pattern" most years but the occasional flurry too!Megan Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04898111041830011043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114660986925655424.post-33724749986119558532015-11-15T12:03:13.401+00:002015-11-15T12:03:13.401+00:00j'adorerais l'avoir, le modèle est trop be...j'adorerais l'avoir, le modèle est trop beau =)Astucieuse Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765273888500725003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114660986925655424.post-19151112748699161532015-11-15T04:22:41.946+00:002015-11-15T04:22:41.946+00:00I'm amazed you were able to do this post from ...I'm amazed you were able to do this post from your phone!
