Patra's Other Place

I started out with Patra's Place, primarily dedicated to my linen collection and stitching projects. But I kept getting side-tracked, so I decided to create Patra's Other Place for anything not related to embroidery topics. So you now have a choice. If you are interested in me, read this. If you only want to see my linen and stitching, visit Patra's (original) Place! (Please note that by clicking on any of the photos, they will be enlarged to fill your computer screen.)

Lots of men's ties for Barb!



My friend Barb in U.S.A. does interesting things with ties. In fact, if you check out her blog Woof Nanny, you will see she does all kinds of interesting crafty things! I found a bag of men's ties in an opshop today for $3, and snapped them up for her. These are two closeup photos; the ties are actually brighter than what they look here. Some are a bit plain and dull - see the brown ones. The others are brighter - I love that blue one with the flowers! And the red one with all the white sheep, with one black sheep in the middle - cute, LOL! Hope you can use them, Barb!

It is important to make sure that the neck tie you are wearing matches the rest of your costume.
