Celtic Scissor Fob Finished!

So it is done.  My first fob ever.  Loads of learning experiences this year (and last year).  I unfortunately made the twisted cord FAR to thick.  It was very difficult to stitch it into my tiny Celtic fob.  For the next time, I will use less thread and fill the corners of the fob with stuffing.

Beautiful thick cord!

Celtic Knots

Hello!

I stitched up two cute little Celtic knots for a scissor fob that I am making.  I love all Celtic patterns and especially loved this one.  I stitched two sides, one in a dark red and gold, the other in a dark purple and gold.  I am thinking about trying my hand at making a twisted cord, but we'll see if that works! The pattern is from this wonderful website that is called Dragon Bear. It talks about the history of samplers from various parts of the world and is quite a good read if you are interested in the history of samplers.
