The vintage thread keeps breaking - I think it is just too dry to tat with and I am having so many problems with the wings to begin with.
So, I shall put this aside (I have no other pink #80) till I feel in the mood to use some #80 DMC for the wing in a different colour. Maybe sooner rather than later as this little dragon looks so naked without his wings! Maybe red and white ones... Yes, maybe that will suffice.
If I do not resolve this, I will have to face the wrath of The Boss...
Do you have any suitable thread in the color of those lovely tail beads?

ReplyDeleteIsDihara, I think I do! Good idea!
ReplyDeletewell, I have a lot of sympathy for your poor poor dragon.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried putting the thread in the freezer? I've heard that can help.
ReplyDeleteHow about lavender or purple to match the tail beads?
ReplyDeleteOh dear, it looks like a legless salamander, which seems every bit as sad as a wingless dragon. You must do something. I like the lavender idea, and I bet The Boss will too when she sees it. You can make it sound like the dragon is even more special because it has TWO colors!

ReplyDeleteI love the colors you used together, reminds me of candy. Some beaders condition their threads so they don't break, but I'm not sure how well it would work or look in tatting.
ReplyDeleteWAA - I'm not spam!
ReplyDeleteBlogger must hate me.
CrazyMom, I caught Gian messing with the Mac... hmmmm.
ReplyDeletePoor little dragon........
ReplyDeleteHm, maybe it's a baby dragon without wings for now?
ReplyDeletePoor HM!
ReplyDeleteYour wingless creature reminds me of the one from "How to Train Your Dragon" (but in a different color)
OH, and I love the ears... they actually make me feel sad for the poor creature
