Motif #11 of 25

This is Kersti Anear's Tabatha bookmark copyright 1998 worked in Size 5 DMC Cotton Pearle in purple #550. The pattern called for two repeats on the clovers, but it was as big as I wanted it after two. It measures 11" with the fringe. This is the first time I have used the pearle and I like the way it looks and feels. It took the majority of the 25m to finish so be careful! I love to work Kersti's patterns. Thank you Kersti for being so generous with us.
This is my shuttle from the "Shuttle Brothers." I have had it several years, but never used it until today with this bookmark. It was an absolute joy to work with! So smooth and the depression where the screw holds it together is a perfect place to hold onto. Posted by Picasa

I love the spider!!! I don't know how you attached it to the motif but it is so cool! I have a ton of different beads at home too.
