is 'Le Flocon Frivole.'
The gorgeous blue is a #40 Lizeth, but I lost the label...
This keeping me sane.
I am still housebound with a virus and getting antsy!

The 620 Post Giveaway!
The 620 Post Giveaway!
If you like or want to try Finca #12, this is your opportunity. I warn you - it is a soft thread and bit fuzzy. I am giving all it away and there was enough to have two winners.
The first winner will also receive the book in the photo. It is a slim publication featuring vintage patterns that I have in other books, so I am passing this along.
If you are a tat-ology fan or someone whom I recognize, you are welcome to participate. Just leave a comment.
The winner (by Random Number Generator) will be announced Wednesday December 7.
Would love to win! I follow your blog. If I find that I do not like the thread for tatting I will crochet with it.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Diane
Wow Fox, very generous prizes.
ReplyDeleteWanted to say how pretty le flocon is in the blue you have chosen...love the shuttle too...so wintry and perfect. The thread looks interesting to try...pretty colors...please enter my name and we'll see if I get to be a recipient of those pretty threads to play with :-) I see my daughters school colors in there and that would be great fun to tat bookmarks with for her teachers!
ReplyDeleteLove the blue you have chosen and the shuttle is very pretty. What a nice giveaway.
ReplyDeleteOh.... It would be too good to be true if I won AGAIN!!!
ReplyDeleteOh pleeeeeease!! I'll be happy with the second prize, I promise!!
Think of the children!
lol
Oh, and your motif looks really nice - love how it coordinates with the shuttle....
ReplyDeletesorry didn't think to mention that in the previous post... I see "Giveaway" and my mind turns one-track
LOL
Me, me, me!!! Please!
ReplyDeleteDo your shuttles always match your work so well? I'm going to try Frivole's snowflake this weekend!
You are always so generous. Hope that you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteAlso I hope that this baby comes before your giveaway is over :)
Tatting has become my new passion! Count me in.
ReplyDeleteMarie Drew
Do you match your shuttles to your tatting thread? I like this shuttle.
ReplyDeleteShe who dies with the most thread wins.
Ohhhh I would love to try this. If I can not needle tat with it, I would crochet with it. I follow you through RSS feed.
ReplyDeletePick me pick me.....
ReplyDeleteA book of tatting? AND thread? Yes please!
ReplyDeletePlease include me in your drawing. I have never used Finca.
ReplyDeleteI have only been following you for a little while, but I am addicted. Count me in!
ReplyDeleteNew threads to try, and why not! I'm always on the look out for new things to work with.
ReplyDeleteSo please toss my name in the "hat". Hope you are on the mend these days. It's too busy a time to by "under the weather", so get well FAST!!!
The drawers at home are all tumbled about 'cause I've been looking for those lucky numbers... I'd love to give Finca a try. I don't mind DMC Cebelia, and it's a soft thread. What I really want to know is what is that beautiful blue you're using for Frivole's snowflake??
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon. Such lovely colors, I would love to be entered. I'm also working on the same snowflake...just in white!
ReplyDeleteMarty, I added the colour explanation to the post - thanks. It is one of the Lizbeth turquoise colours, not sure which one.
ReplyDeleteFox : )
How nice .. I love the blue ... to me in Italy are not many colors of wire to CHATTER. I love working in CHATTER .. I hope to participate by so 'far away!
ReplyDeleteI'm a Finca lover with her fingers crossed :). Thanks so much for your generosity.
ReplyDeleteLove the blue and the shuttle! Please don't enter me in the drawing. I have enough thread to last several lifetimes. : )
ReplyDeleteI am running out of my 'waste threads' that I use for trying out my designs. I could use some of those thread for my new designs.
ReplyDeleteBut the past few mails from Canada to me have somehow got lost somewhere, so I am not sure if it is a good thing to send them to me, if my name is picked, :(. Rather not risk it at the expense of other tatters, please do not include me in the draw.
I've never tried Finca, wouldn't mind having a go at it! Thank you for the giveaway(s). :)
ReplyDeleteI have never used Finca. Please include me in your drawing.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, threads, count me in.
ReplyDelete(You know the pictures of zombies staggering around, saying "brains, brains", I see myself doing the same, saying "thread, thread"... Yes, I am extemely sleep deprived right now.)
i've been eyeing this same snowflake. will be my next to tat... can't wait to see yours done up.
ReplyDeleteanother destashing exercise? nice. never tried finca, worth giving it a shot, me think.
Fox,
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern!! A must try and repeat!!
I hope you continue to heal!

Most of the thread I get here is soft and fuzzy cotton perlé - I wouldn't mind *at all* giving the Finca a try!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try these fine thread, and more nuance game has. tat-ology because your blog is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLLL Diane took the words right out of my mouth: Love the blue and the shuttle! Please don't enter me in the drawing. I have enough thread to last several lifetimes. : )
ReplyDeleteShe and I must be on the same wavelength.
Feel better soon, Fox!
I did so many snowflakes for last year's hols that I haven't touched another snowflake pattern since then :) Such bright thread colors!
ReplyDeleteLovely snowflake and shuttle. Even when ill you are creating. I'd like to give the thread a try as have never used it.
ReplyDeleteKeep feeling better, Karen in OR, who is tatting Iris's earrings in DMC Perle 12 and wondering if the Finca 12 will work, too.
Mm, I would love to try out the Finca. And isn't that pattern amazing? I think I'm in love. Your blue is a great color for it too.
ReplyDeletePlease enter me in your drawing. I have never used Finca, and the colors look so delicious! If I find it too soft to shuttle tat with ( I'm notorious for shredding thread) I can always needle tat with it.
ReplyDeletelet me try my chance too :) Thanks for the giveaway !! I have not worked with that thread before but would love to try it out + the book is awesome to have :)
ReplyDeleteOhhhh, I want to try Finca! Thanks for hosting a give away! I'm inspired to host one myself in the next few days.
ReplyDeleteOh I want to try too! Please enter me!
