Down the Rosepath Again




Rows of X and O motifs in gaily colored Rosepath (sigh!) against a  background of black and gray prison stripes, suggest some of the complexities of romance, and seems Valentines-appropriate. (Or, that I'll never escape Rosepath).  Wearable cuff, sentimental, handwoven, closed with vintage Mississippi pearl buttons, and hand crocheted button loops, lined with dupioni silk,  I call them Hard Times for Valentines.

Jude, You're right. I guess rosepath keeps not letting me down.

These are wonderful. More precious than jewels. And be careful out in the woods.

Susan said...

I take my chances out there

Your creativity never ceases to amaze me. These are truly lovely. And lined with silk, no less!

Susan said...

Thank you, Peg.
I love proverbs and sayings. Remember, You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear? Well, I love to use good, homely materials (sows ears) and silk seems to go well with them. And feels nice to the touch, too
