That bottom one in the middle looks a bit bandy .......................
..................... and I think the one on the far left is doing the Charleston.
Here they are all packed up and ready to hopefully do a bit of fundraising at our next exhibition.
You may remember me saying two or three posts back - 'I must not buy any more threads'!!! Well - I just happened to be browsing the Stef Francis website and took a peek into the Special Offers bit and came upon these bargains. I justified my weakness by buying the three packs above for my daughter.
Of course, it would have been foolish not to take advantage of the other offers so I bought this pack of silk threads, whose colours are far more lovely in reality, ........................
.................... and these cotton ones which are very useful as they come in such a range of thicknesses. I just love using hand-dyed and space-dyed threads - they seem to be so versatile and give a special touch to numerous projects.
While I was there, I thought these silk fibres would be lovely incorporated into silk paper or worked under the embellisher. All I now need is an idea to start working on!

Love your button babes Heather. As for Stef Frances - I find it best not to go anywhere near her site unless I wish to spend a lot of money!
gorgeous little ladies Heather. and oh my - what a retail session you had.
Love your Button Babes!! and you obviously don't listen to a word you say!!
Hi Heather, such lovely little people. I'm sure the'll go really well. The threads are just beautiful. I must investigate too, hehe.
such treasures! and I wish you much success with your lovely dolls!
Mmmm such luscious threads and fibres. The dolls are amazing, hope that they all sell well, which I am sure they will.
When I was doing y C&G (pre Computer) I rang Steph francis and asked if they would send me some threads on sale or return basis. I ordered £50 worth..a lot in those days, and I just couldn't send any of them back!
I agree they are gorgeous.
