I'm trying to decide which is my favourite but it's impossible!!! I don't often like using variegated threads but for these it seems to work well. After all butterflies aren't just one colour, are they?
Work is almost done on the drawings so now I just have to assemble the page and fit it onto the blank pages in a way that will save paper and ink for those who want to print it out.
This is always a major, MAJOR concern of mine - saving the planet by trying to fit everything onto as few sheets as possible but making the pattern easily readable.
Personally I never print off a pattern whether mine or anybody else's. I work entirely in a digital form. I check that the patterns fit a page by doing a 'print preview' and then, when I'm happy, it's a 'done deal'!!! That's the beauty of using Pages (I use a mac) as it's so easy to move stuff around.
Right - time for a cuppa!!!!
Your butterflies are so fun!!! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the variegated antennae!!
I like the way the colors pool in the bottom one with the pinks and blues. Just my thought......
ReplyDeleteYour butterflies are gorgeous. I really like the way you coordinated the colorway on the second one to make the wings 'match' each other. As always, your tatting is beautiful.
