I had a busy day today temari-ing- something I've been itching to do for a while. I love using threads and of course they're just another excuse to play with colour!
The first one I made was a Rose Garden design and, as I'm still working away using reds, I used an analogous scheme with red, orange and yellow.
The second was more complicated, and probably the most complicated one I have made, and uses an "interlinked pentagon" design.
Again to keep in with the challenge I used 12 different reds. Right from orangy-red, through pinky-reds and violet-reds, and teamed them with a green as the contrast colour.
As I made this one I used pins to help me see where I needed to work and planned to add another embellishement to the centre of each pentagon at the end.
But once I had finished I decided I liked the look of them so may leave them in, at least until I decide what else to do.
