:(

:(

     I was tatting another butterfly and noticed, once I was done with one side, the thread looked dingy.  I use hand sanitizer before I tat, to make sure my hands are clean of dirt and oil, then I  rub my hands on my sleeves.  I also noticed my blue beads looked paler than when they came out of the package and my fingers looked a little blue :(  :(  The beads I had gotten from Jo Ann Fabric store had lost their color and came off on to my tatting!!  
 

      I threw out the beads and started over, using the pale peach to make a coral reef butterfly.  This one I'm keeping :)

  1. Oh, how sad about the beads. The final butterfly looks even better with those blues.

  2. I didn't realize the color would come off the beads... something to look out for!
