Let the "show and tell" begin!
~*~
See the stamp and postmark from Malaysia?
See the lovely warm and muted hues?I thought they had a "vintage" look about them.
The HDT colorways are as follows:
"By the Sea"
"By the Sea" is a hand dyed Flora brand thread.This one is size 20
***
"Orchid Garden"
"Orchid Garden" is a hand dyed Omega brand thread.This one is size 50
***
"Pink Rose"
"Pink Rose" is a hand dyed Hakelgarn Brand thread.This one is size 20.
***
The "Ruffled Heart" pattern
(design by Vicki Clarke) was
used to tat up these lovely HDT's
You may notice the "Ruffled Heart"
being used a lot lately here.
It seems to be the perfect pattern for
a multi-colored thread and is fairly
easy and fast to tat up!

I found the Flora and Hakelgarn threads easy to tat
with. All the colorways are warm and seem to
have muted, "Vintage" looking hues about them!
I can honestly say these were the EASIEST
HDT's to unwind! Whatever you're doing to
wind your HDT's, Zarina, keep doing it because
I had no tangles when unwinding these skeins!

Thank, Carlie! I'm glad you like both of them!
Thank you, Cathy!
Hi Fox, thanks for the comment!
Thank you, Linda! I appreciate that.
Yes, Ann, a soft warm color tone...that's what they have.
Thank you, Donna! I'm so glad you stopped by.
Completely yummy. I crochet alot with 20. And the tangling as you said, can be a pain. Thank you for sharing your ruffled hearts with us.

Hi TattingChic, Lovely colored HDT's. Your photography always showcases the tatting so nicely. It really shows the thread and tatting so up close and clear. Thank you for showing the thread.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful colours, they look so pretty tatted.
ReplyDeleteVictoria xx
Those are really lovely colors. The Orchid Garden is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteI also just adore your new address book.
'Til next time......
Really pretty! How neat that you get to test tat!
ReplyDeleteHi Angela, you get HDT skeins, too for your crochet? I would imagine that would get used up REALLY fast, LOL! I'm sure your projects are lovely, though!
ReplyDeleteHi Jez! Oh, "By the Sea" is very pretty! I wish you could see it in person!
Thanks Jessica. I love seeing you come by to visit!
Hello there, Nunt! Me thinks you should gets! Go on over to Zarina's blog and let her know!
Hi Lori! Thanks, glad you like 'em!
Hi Marilyn, thanks! I thought that particular heart pattern would show off the colorway's flow to it's best advantage.
Thank you, Carol! I appreciate your nice comment about the photography! Most days I have to wait until just the right time of day to take those photos, LOL! I only have a window of a few hours each day to get just the right sunlight angles so I appreciate that.
Thanks, Victoria. I am glad you like the colors and the tatting.
Hi Gerry, thanks! Glad you stopped by!
Hi there Snap! Yes, I thought it was so neat to have the chance to test tat them, too!
Beautiful colours.
ReplyDeleteThese are just beautiful! Each one is like a tiny rainbow.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful thread colors! Thread envy here :) I still need to try that little ruffled heart - I like it in every thread I've seen.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colors! I would love to work with those threads.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
ReplyDeleteSuch marvelous muted colors from Malaysia! Orchid Garden is calling to me. Were all your test tats 6-cord threads? I thought Omega waas a 3-cord thread, but it seems odd that they wouldn't all be 6-cord threads. Your thoughts?
ReplyDeleteI love the orchid garden- the colors are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful motifs and colorways!
ReplyDeleteJo :)
Hi Miss TattingChic,
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and I always love your work.
hugs,
Barb
Orchid garden takes my breath away.
ReplyDeleteHi Tatt Chic, Oh what gorgeous colors of HDT. I love them all and especially the tatted treasures you made to test them. I bet you had fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great show and tell. Thank you for sharing these beautiful threads.
See you soon, have a great week.
Hugs, Celestina Marie
Those are just beautiful threads! Love those colorways and love the ruffled hearts too!!
ReplyDeleteIsdihara - I've double checked the Handy Hands website and yes, "NOTE this is a soft threads. Mercerized, 100% cotton, 6-cord cordonnet thread"
ReplyDeleteThose jewel-bright color combinations and shine are just scrumptious...those are very elegant colorways--BIG WOW! The heart pattern showcase the threads beautifully! Thanks for sharing your fun finds, TattingChic! Happy Week :o) (HUGS))
ReplyDeleteTattingChic,
ReplyDeleteWondering. I do not do tatting, but do crazy Quilting. I really like the threads you shared from Zarnia, lucky you. I was wondering if the threads can be used for embroidery? If so what size would you compare it to lets say a Perle cotton?

You are so lucky to be able to tat such wonderfully coloured threads. The tatting is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe thread colors are sweeeet! Your tatted creations with the thread are lovely. Tatting is quite beautiful work, and though I don't tat, I just may give it a try! And a great big heap of "thank you" for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteThose colors are gorgeous! I love the way the motifs came out. It makes me wish I had extra $ to buy HDT.
ReplyDeleteSarah
These colors and your tatting work are amazing!!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness those are some of the most beautiful tatted creations I have seen! They are just gorgeous! I love the colors:).

Beautiful threads and a perfect way to showcase them with the ruffled hearts. You definitely have mastered the pattern! It has new techniques I'd like to try.
ReplyDeleteHey Tatting Chic.... oh but these are lovely threads... and of course, your beautiful tatting only enhances the beauty of them.... Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful threads. I'm going to try that pattern for some little doo-dads for my coat. I have some fancy colored threads that might look nice. Your blog is wonderful. I'm glad I wandered over here.
