Welcome to the eleventh edition of the Fob a Month for 2018! While it might be a given to do the poppy in November because of Remembrance Day I won't be doing that because I did the poppy in August. I did however choose another of my favourite flowers instead: the Anemone. I love the white ones the most with the big purple-black centre so that's the one I designed.
The good thing about Anemones is that they come in many colours so you
can adjust the colour to one you like - the red ones look rather poppies
like so you could do a red one for Remembrance Day!
This month the pattern was designed using a blended thread - it's simple to do really - all you need is one thread of each colour threaded in the needle as if it was two strands of the same colour - that's it!
You can find the pattern here
That's all for this week - see you next Tuesday for the next instalment of the Weavers Tapestry Band Sampler SAL.
I first started this blog due to "popular demand" for me to to share my cooking and quilting results in blog form as it was easier for friends and people who know me to see what I'm up to, especially compared to just an image hosting site. Now I blog because I enjoy sharing what I do and hope that I do in some way inspire people to try new things out as well.

Oh, I like this one! It might be just me, but it seems a little different from your usual style. Still lovely, though!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes it is a little different as I don't usually do outlines in backstitch on my patterns and I did for this one to make sure the white of the flowers would show up properly on white fabric.
