 Greetings!

It seems early, but Fall is definitely in the air! As a matter of fact, I have Halloween on my mind already......well, actually, it's on my Brain.......... Many of you know that for a couple of months, now, I have been trying to recover from an injury to my brain. Today I've learned that it's getting worse instead of better. So, tomorrow I will have surgery that will hopefully fix it for good. The great news is that it requires several holes in my head, so with a little metal flake paint I will be an awesome Bowling Ball for Halloween!! Just wanted to warn you that that costume's been taken!!
 
It's been so long since I've written (and will be a while longer until I can), I just wanted to let you know that wonderful yarns, embellishments, and TASSEL KITS are arriving daily. And, in spite of my exploding head, we are still having lots of fun at Florilegium. We'd love to have you join us!!

NewTassel Kit
 
 
 
White tassel 
So many people have been asking for Tassel kits, and I have FINALLY figured out how to keep them coming!!!! From now until I run out of ideas (approximately year 2050, I hope).....I will be creating at least ONE limited edition tassel kit each month. I'll make as many as I can from these gorgeous, irreplaceable Czech beads, and that will be it for that kit. This month begins with the large tassel shown above, but there is a bookmark tassel and a medium-sized tassel kit, as well. I think Fred will be linking the picture above to photos of the other two designs, so just click on this photo to see the others.
 
PS: The designs are finished, the instructions are almost ready, and the materials are kitted!!! My exploding head has delayed the actual delivery to the store by about one week, I think.....So, NEXT WEEK, if all goes well, they should be ready!!
