multicolor thread 1

Dear tattingfriends, I like so much to work with the multicolor thread, but I have discovered, that is does not work good with little motifs or doilies, because it hides the design. Therefore I have studied some designs, where the multicolor thread works wonderful. Here are some of them: for the left one I used for the outer round of the flowers the three colors of the multicolor thread of the inner round.

I agree with you, I only use variegated threads with a plain color and it is usually one of the colors in the variegated thread. If not it is a green or neutral color.

You are so right. Variegated threads are beautiful, but must be used with a pattern that isn't hidden by all the color changes. The ones you've shown are, indeed, perfect.
