Yes it's colour, don't pass out. It's just a little something I am sampling and if I ever get my fingers working fast enough you will hear about this in my May newsletter which will be with you before May is out....honest. It's kind of strange working in this sugary palette when I am working in white for the embroidery class. This however was an evening, my white for class will continue for weeks......
Today I have circles of white cotton lawn waiting for a little attention, to be applied to my cloth and adorned. I'm sure French knots will feature there too...white ones.

So pretty
Perfectly proportioned french knot circles! Love the ice cream parlour colours....soft, yet inviting.
Why don't my french knots look like yours?
Karen-
This was such a pleasant site this morning-you have raised my curiosity. I hope you have a fabulous day!
yummy.
Easter candy!
It's certainly a change, but light and airy, just like the white!
Oooh, pretty colors!
Is that base fabric silk? It looks very much like a vintage piece that I've been hoarding ... although mine is a warm creamy ecru tone.
OK I just deleted three comments by mistake!!! Peggy, Carol and Annet...I am sorry!!!
I love these colors, so pretty, delicate and pastel, very nice :)
Hi Karen, I have just found your site and love it, will you be doing the button workshop again, I had a look but it is sold out.

Such yummie knots! I stitched a lot of white ones today, but my first block is still not finished.

These look edible almost. I can't wait to see what you do with these!
Very, very pretty Karen. The soft colours may not be white but the perfection of the stitch reads "you" just as easily.
It's just lovely!
Karen - I just left a comment using my work ID - the Sewing basket - should have been my own profile - Jillayne

Where would we be without your beautiful pictures to drool over, tempting us to get out threads and needles out :)
These look like delicious little candies!
