Nazli Gelin Garden thread -- with buttons


I found some Nazli Gelin Garden thread at one of the LYS. Once I got home, I couldn't remember why I chose this neutral shade instead of one of the brighter ones, but I was able to pair it with some vintage black and brown buttons to good effect. It's manufactured in Turkey with Egyptian cotton and tats OK. The label calls it Size 1 Superfine, which may be some sort of yarn sizing. It looks similar to, or just a little larger than our size 10 cotton threads. I need to make some size samples, but I haven't done that yet.

Zig-zag chains make for an interesting effect.


I'll have to go back for some of the other colors.

I'm Still At It

Still playing with buttons and things. Some results are better than others.




This last one is my favorite so far.
