I am currently working on - well not right now,
Fairy Godmother is making princess dresses right now - a pattern called Snowfolks from Bobbie G Designs (
http://www.bobbiegdesigns.com/item.asp?id=280&cat=25).
I am using a variegated blue silk from Vikki Clayton. LOVE LOVE LOVE her silks. And they are ALL (but the deepest reds) colorfast. And she even dyes Perle, Chennile, and fabrics too. LOVE!!!
But I have used, Perle, Floss, Quilting Thread, whatever. Like Luv Quilts and Cats, what ever interests me at the moment.
On Snowfolks, I am doing it in snowflakes and blues in my fabrics and a beautiful variegated from ice blues to deep, clear, dark blues. I really want to get to the point that I can work on it again. But between Fairy Godmother duties, Christmas and committments, it will be awhile. It's only for me, so it waits.
