White, Blue and Black for Now


It was my friend Stephen's birthday last June 1 and so I made this. Took me a few hours to finish it. He's going to pass by the house tomorrow just to collect it. I originally told him it would take me months to finish and he believed me.

I used to make a lot of this for my best friends in elementary. I would sneak into my Lola's sewing box and would snip about twelve inches of a variety of her DMC threads occasionally. I adored the colors, especially the different shades of pink and red. It got to a point where I used up almost all of it and she found out later on and I was reprimanded of course by her and Tita Beau for according to them, the DMC threads Lola had were specifically ordered from her sister-in-law living in Greece because the colors weren't available here. I have only made another DMC bracelet now since that incident.
