Two More Edgings

Edging 89 is a rings-only pattern. Frothy, I'd call it. I think it would work better as an insertion than an edging.  Edging 90 is pretty but pedantic, with a lot of ends to hide. The picture shows it with all the rings in the same colour, but I thought that if I had to keep stopping and starting anyway, I could make the flowers in different colours and use up short lengths of thread. A short length like this makes a pretty bookmark.

  1. The pedantic edging appeals to me!I suppose many yards of the frothy one would be effective around the hemline of a skirt - especially in colour.

  2. Ooh! I can picture that edging/insertion in a pretty blouse! I like the way you've used the flower edging to use up ends of thread, although I'm not a big fan of starting, stopping, and hiding ends. It does make a pretty bookmark!

  4. I agree it would make a nice bookmark, bracelet or as an insertions, very pretty as a flower insertion for a pillow case too

  8. Both of these edgings look beautiful however they also look very tedious and time consuming.
