Ukrainian Ornie: A Finish-Finish!

Hey Blog Buddies,
I figure if I keep on finish-finishing ornaments myself, "someday" I will be adept enough to do it so that (a) they're to my liking and (b) I quit pulling my hair out during the process.  In the meantime, here is my little Ukrainian whitework project, finished as an ornament:

It really looks cute finished this way.

My first attempt at making the cording went awry.

(My cord was just a little too short.)

So I was determined that my second cord

would be long enough--and it was.

You can't see the tassels in this photo

because they hang about 12 inches

below the ornament!

If you would like to learn how to do this whitework technique

and live anywhere near northwest Indiana

(or would like to go on a road trip),

my Guild is hosting a workshop

on September 8, 2012,

and anyone is welcome to sign up!

And bring a friend!

We have lots of space now,

but the number of students is limited.

Click the photo of the ornie on my sidebar

to get all the details.

Or email me--that would work, too.

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for visiting!
