Not one of my best ideas for colours! This is an edging I started for a handkerchief. A plain white one.
The thread is from Edda and you can see all about it here.
It's a delight to use and that wasn't why I cut the shuttles off. I just didn't like how it was turning out!! I think it's a lack of contrast between the plain and the variegated or it could be simply that I didn't really like it for the white hanky. Just me and my weird way of thinking.
So, I started something else with the same shuttles and I'll show you once it's finished.

It's a pretty edging! I can see why you think it's too much of a contrast. There's no sense in carrying on if it doesn't look right to you!
I not sure depends on the fabric you put it with :)
Looks like it was a great start!!! :)
I hope there will be a use for that fragment.
I rather like the look... even for a white hankie!
Going now to check out that thread... : )
Poor little abandoned edging! The "over the top" color combo reminds me of children happily coloring with crayons, and it's got that kind of charm. I hope it finds a home.
Wow! Over $16.00 for postage! No thanks!
