Blue Organza Ring

This electric blue organza flower ring was a present for a friend.

 She chose blue for the petals and I suggested these large gold beads for the centre which she loved.

It's big and bold and makes quite a statement on her dainty fingers.

She's already worn it and says she got lots of compliments on it....

Electric Blue Tie

I made a tie the other day.

My very first tie.

It was an order for a friend who specified the very electric blue of the fabric.

I thought that making a tie would be a walk in the park but it took me almost a whole day to finish with a lot of aligning, unpicking and re-stitching.

It was no small feat, I can tell you, so I'm quite proud of how well it turned out. (I even made a matching pocket square.)

This is the pattern I used, Simplicity 9962.

It's got all sorts of other men's accessories I'd like to try, especially the slippers which can be made for the whole family.
