Two WIP's, and a FO.

WIP: Teresa Wentzler's "Tradewinds". There will eventually be a boat in that half-circle area. My longest-running WIP - I think I started it in 2004. Heh. I will finish it before I die.

FO: Teresa Wentzler's "Knotwork Bookmark" freebie - a 'color your own' design, designed to be used with an overdyed floss. Picking the third color gave me such headaches - I'd tried to find a gold in my Floss-O-Dex that went with the overdyed and dark green, but the light green shade there was the one I ended up with. Calling it "finished" is stretching the term a little - I still need to sew the backing onto it. And now I can honestly say I've finished three TW patterns....this one, and the "Stretch" and "Futurecast" freebies. :) Fabric is light blue Jobelan; the overdyed was Six Strand Sweets "Patti Cakes".

WIP: Dragon Dreams's "Blackwork Dragon". As much as I complain about backstitch, you'd think I'd avoid blackwork like the plague, but once you find the rhythm of a particular pattern it's fun and easy. I couldn't find the Silk Bella the pattern called for - the only non-overdyed silk my LNS had was from a brand called "Splendor".

I feel a little guilty for having two WIP's - I haven't worked on Tradewinds in about a month. But I really wanted to get the fuzzyfeet done.

I've also got a series of pictures on the project I did with the Hardanger; it's getting a separate post.
