In this book, "Mastering Tatting" by Lindsay Rodgers |
She describes Cornflowers as flowers the grow beneath her corn, |
I thought of the blue flowers called "Cornflower" wonder if that is how the got their name? Wow it is check it out here looks like they are endangered flowers too that's why I didn't make so many blue one :) |
This many pictures you can tell I love this doily have a wonderful Day! |
Fabulous!! I really like this doily. Well done to you.

ReplyDeleteI have those cornflowers in my garden, but no corn. I call them bachelor buttons. The ones I have are blue.
Yes I bought some for mine and that is what the package said they were called bachelor buttons too, I just checked it on Google and they said they are one in the same😀
DeleteOlá amiga!
ReplyDeleteMaravilhoso.
Amei!!!!!!!!
Quanto a flor é usado em chás?
E também é usada em saladas, ou eu entendi errado.
Desculpe amiga a curiosidade.
beijos
Yes, there is a third flower called corn flower and here it is called chicory and the root we use in tea taste like coffee and is same color as the Batchelor buttons but not the same plant but all three can be called corn flower wow this was and educational day I learned so much from tatting😄🌹💟
DeleteOh, now it all makes sense - the brilliant colours, design elements, and your excellent tatting. Love it when a piece tells a story - like Jane's Under the African Sky Doily !
ReplyDeleteYes it makes it special when there is a meaning behind it even when designer passes the pattern on some quilts are that way and even in some baked goods. 💟😄💟
