Our friends Gus and Irene have a new grandson. His baptism is next week, and I decided to tat a cross to commemorate the occasion.
At first I planned on using Turquoise Twist, but Denise and I got talking about blues, and Denise mentioned Peacock Blues. I just couldn't get it out of my head, so Peacock Blues became the thread of choice!
I think this is my favorite cross so far!
Pattern: Krzyz from Tatted Treasures by Jan Stawasz
Thread: size 20 Lizbeth #149 Peacock Blues
Gold tone doodad from Fire Mountain Gems
Goodness, everytime I see that cross I want to throw monetary caution to the wind and order that book NOW :-). Such a nice pattern!
