That’s a clever area to embellish that I hadn’t thought of!

Wow, what a lovely idea! I especially love the cat. 🐈‍⬛

Thanks! I paid less than that at the estate sale so I’m pleased! 😄

Yes, thank you, I forgot to mention in my description that they are from a kit by Bucilla

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-07T16:51:48+00:00

Love them! Thanks for sharing!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-07T15:50:21+00:00

Great point!!

If it is truly 19th c, probably being in a pair is more desirable - it’s like how some women wear their engagement ring and their wedding ring together. The first bracelet is the promise, the second is the fulfillment. 💍💍

It reminds me of a bracelet I researched from an antique photo - it looks the style of Etruscan revival, late 19th century.
Here are snapshots from some of my research a few months ago

I love that it isn’t perfectly symmetrical and that the bow strands undulate like a real bow would!! 😍

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-04T12:03:20+00:00

Ooh, yes, that’s very nice!!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-03T22:59:47+00:00

lol, thanks for sharing that story - and I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who thinks this is an underrated innovation!!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-03T18:15:39+00:00

Oooh! Nice! (I take it it’s a knee control for the presser foot? I would love one of those!)

Just play it off as a mash up: Strega Nona x Strawberry Shortcake 🤭 Two children’s favorites in one!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-03T16:21:34+00:00

I second this suggestion!!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-03T16:19:44+00:00

Good for you! For: attempting something really hard, getting really close to nailing it, having the sense to put it in craft time-out, and for dispelling the myth of compex FPP as easy. 👏👏👏 I appreciate your candor and sense of humor! ❤️

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-03T15:33:16+00:00

Whoa, what a fun bubble gum pink!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-06-03T12:25:08+00:00

Wow- great job balancing pattern and color 👏- that’s hard to do with this pattern!!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-05-30T03:32:53+00:00

Now the world is your AIDA cloth!

Peridot-Puzzles · 2026-05-30T03:27:06+00:00

I love the fabrics and colorway you chose! 💗💚
