1. Fuchsia worked winter 2004 2. Flight of a Butterfly worked winter 2005 3. Peacock worked winter 2006 4. Kingfisher worked winter 2008 "Granddad has always found it amazing how it is possible to get so many different patterns out of, what is principally a square grid. He appreciates 'pure' blackwork very much and will sometimes leave out the couching and trimmings so the design remains more 'traditional'. He found the butterfly the most complicated and yet so very rewarding, the clean lines of this design and the lace-like detail is fabulous. The Peacock is maybe the favourite though (and mine too) as it's a very full design and yet so very elegant. Granddad was 87 this Feb (2008) and is not sure if he'll be able to do another black work project (you do need a lot of eye-power!) but he has thoroughly enjoyed your designs Tanja - thank you!"

"I love my “Flight of a Butterfly!” This piece is an exquisite blackwork design which incorporates some beginning goldwork techniques to beautifully accent the butterfly. This piece has solidified my love for blackwork. Tanja is an excellent teacher and her instructions are very thorough and easy to understand" Mary Doerder in Iowa, USA

"My Penpal in Tasmania knew I loved Butterflies and saw the picture in an Australian Magazine and sent me the kit. This was my first Blackwork and I found it a pleasure to work. I love it and am looking forward to working the Flight of a Butterfly to make the pair" Linda Cooper in Norfolk, England

"His has been named 'Pee' and he hangs at the bottom of the stairs, in the hallway. He is either a flirt or a spy as he winks or stares when the light catches his eye. Every one who sees him is quite taken by his "eye movement". I am so pleased he cannot talk. He was a delight to work and I will enjoy him in his own quiet way." Sharon Gray in Manitoba, Canada
