The second blue from the right is JUST the colour I've been looking for for years!!! I bought a ball as soon as I saw it. I struggle with blue as a colour for some strange reason. Great choices - keep spending!!!!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely, I understand. I also agree don't tell big daddy! Happy shopping & tatting!
ReplyDeleteI certainly do understand! I went on a spending spree myself earlier in the week (after paying all the bills)...hdt is on its way as I write!
ReplyDeleteway to go!!! More on it's way sooooon!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous threads!!! I am waiting on some from Tatskool and I just ordered from HH. May I join your club? Lol!!! My husband will freak if he is home when it all comes!
ReplyDeleteMe thinks the HDT and Shuttle Addiction club is already large and a growing body of those awaiting mail from our favorite HDT folks.
ReplyDeleteI never got around to taking a photo of my hdt collection, but it may still happen. Granddaughter has promised to take a proper photo of my shuttles.
Love the fact that TatSkool and now LSMaker are making solids to match the variegated threads. I use to tat with 20 regularly; but now, I've switched to 40 and 50.
You made some lovely choices.
Happy Tatting!
I'm diggin' those threads!

Ohh LaLa, Love all the colors you have added to your collection!! What are the names of the 3 HDT colors on the left? They are so pretty!! I have bought some balls of the Lizbeth thread from Handy Hands and just today bought 2 variegated Lizbeth threads from JoAnn Fabrics. Happy Tatting with all your new lovely colors!!
ReplyDeleteOh I do love matching solid colours for varig threads, Yarnplayer has always made these, they add so much to the versatility of a colourway.
ReplyDeleteCarol, The three scrumptious HDTs on the left are from Dr. Von Threadmore's experimental batches. Starting on the left and working my way in, they are: Watermelon, Leaf Green and Teal.
