Having made about half of the leaves required for Nita I'm now thinking of making some for myself to turn into a necklace. I'll use oranges and browns to make a bit of a change of colour!!!
If I get started at about half past seven in the evening I can make two leaves before bedtime!!
To follow this pattern I use the pdf file on my iPad and follow the lines round using 'markup'. I rub the pencil out when I've finished and that's the end of that!!! Also for the last chain I use this method which leaves me with just one end to sew in and no knots!!!
I’ve been asked about the idea of converting jeans into a skirt and have found if you put in a Google search there are several Youtube videos including this one and also this tutorial on Wikihow.
I have no desire to turn jeans into a skirt, but I am tempted to give those leaves a try again!
ReplyDeleteI love that little pattern and they’d go SO well with all your flowers!!! The pattern I’ve been using is one by Judith Connor who had permission to change it slightly to make it even easier to work.
ReplyDeleteRight. Still boggles my mind a little but I see how it’s done, thanks for the link.
ReplyDeleteIs there supposed to be a link the "this method" for the last chain?
ReplyDeleteAre you allowed to share Judith Conner's changes (with us) to the leaf pattern? (If it's a violation of copyright, please, please DON'T share. Just thought I'd ask, though, just in case it's ok.)

StephanieW - I’d have to ask Judith and she’d have to ask Ruth’s family but I will ask for you.
