Core spun on wire



This is getting out of control.......but it's so much fun!  Spinning on wire is an experience.  I had to hand feed most of it onto the bobbin.  Next time I might look for a thinner wire.

Speaking of wire, look what my dear blog friend Norma sent me for my birthday!  Thank you once again Norma!  I love her!

  3. That is really neat and would be the perfect accent to use in a variety of items. I can see what you mean about finding the right gauge of wire though. hmmmm, another spinning idea for me to try.
