I was tidying some stuff away and found this edging - slightly crumpled in its bag - all completed and ready to sew onto the handkerchief! I'd even started to crochet a border around the hanky to attach the lace to... and I'd completely forgotten about it!
It shouldn't take too long to get that finished. A nice surprise.
I've done the draw and the random generator gave me numbers 3, 35, 27, 13, and 6. If people are trying to count to see that I'm right, I've not counted Muskaan's second comment but counted the anonymous comment that was below hers.
So I am sending the pattern to Bernice, Johanna, Christina, Bozena, and God's Kid. If you have an email address attached to your blogger account (the account you used to write your comment) I will send it to that address. If not, can you please contact me with your email so I can send you the pattern.
Thank you very much for all your contributions with the names, some great ones in there but there were also quite a few votes for "Crystal Star" so I may keep it. Your suggestions are really appreciated and could well be used on the next design! I already have some ideas which I hope I'll be able to turn into workable motifs (but to find the time as always!).
Muskaan, I'd already used "Stellar" for one of my free patterns but I did like that one; "Twinkle" was also used for another free pattern but I also really liked Alpha, Rising Star, Starlight, and Crystalline Star. So again, many thanks for your lovely suggestions.
And to finish,
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
to those who celebrate it.
My favourite thing is always the carved pumpkins...

I never said it was my invention Riet. I'm not even sure it's Ann Orr's either. This edging can be found in many vintage publications.
DeleteReit's comment is once again mean-spirited and should be removed. She has attacked and wrongly accused you before and should keep her nasty, incorrect comments to herself... I'm sick of this pettiness.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful border! Finish it!
