I made some knots yesterday. They have generated so much interest that I thought it would be good to have a small supply, no particular project in mind, just incase, you never know.
It is quite a while since I made any of these and for a moment I forgot the knotting process, I got there eventually though and there are three of them here to show you.
This morning I decided to gather up this weeks work. It hasn't been a waste of time after all. I have more cutwork, more applique, more text, my little edge thingy's and knots. Quite productive after all.

Those knots are so cool! And in my opinion, you seem to be incredibly productive!
I love the knots. It soon mounts up when you stitch whenever you have a spare moment. Must be lovely to get to the end of the week and be able to feast your eyes on these
I still can't work out how to turn those strips of sewn bias the right way in. I've seen it done, but the very idea gives me nightmares.
I'd actually call that Lots of Work.
The knots are a great detail - and so interesting! If I got half as much done this week as you did I'd be doing a happy dance...my nieces were in town (ages 10 and 12) and I played tourist with them every day...they flew home yesterday and now I have a wreck of a house and a pile of laundry to deal with! Today is the big Northwest quilt show so one more day of play before I have to get back to my routine! As usual, I love your work! xo, Nan
Progress looks very impressive to me. I am beginning to see that your way of working is immensely productive-I'm trying to sort out a "best working practise" here too, with varying degrees of success.
I spent a joyous time yesterday reading back posts of yours and feeling so inspired by them. Have a great weekend.
The knots are lovely.
It sure adds up.... love the knots and all of the other wonderful needlework this week...you are very productive (in the wee hours).
Thank You! I'm so glad you shared this technique. I have purchased these before but never thought of making them. These are lovely.
Those knots are gorgeous karen. I'm going to have to give them a try! Think practise with some purchased cord before I make my own though!
