Yes checked the first post should have started there. Competition as an example car racing, sports, horse racing, sailing any sort of competition. Special issues, my fave but probably done already. Musical instruments. Jewellery. Tribal costumes or National dress.

Good ideas, pp -- great minds think alike! I suspect you'll enjoy 2017... :graucho:

On last weeks theme, another Legende Kuna Peuple de Panama.

I want to share some thoughts on this scarf. I am a newbie in the silk world. This scarf was in my top 5 most desired. When it came, it surprised me. It is pink, purple, and blue, so how could it be any better?

Well first of all, the blue is much more neon that it appears in any pic I have seen or is captured in my pic. It is not pastel. Second, the contrast border is MUCH more challenging than I expected. My tying skills are non existent, but I did figure out how to display the part I love (the pink square) by positioning it off center and hiding the challenging border inside my top. But needless to say, I am looking forward to the October 2 theme "HIDE THAT BORDER: knots that hide borders and/or emphasize scarf centers".

Thanks for letting me share. I would have like to have known the challenges of this color way before buying, so maybe this info will help someone else.

Happy Mother's Day, all!

There are so many fabulous H scarves with flowers, so I'll go with one with "FLEURS" right on the marquee, Fleurs d'Indiennes.

But I thought I'd combine being on theme with being on tangent, and try to add a visual aid (inspired by MrsWasik) about the triangle:

Paper strip example
Loose knot
Tighter knot
On!

[Bushbaby postscript]

And, Mrs W, I think what have on your Jungle Love Tatouage, rather than a sloth, may be a critter that can go mano-a-mano with Mr. Sloth for sheer cuteness: a bushbaby or galago -- thanks for featuring him! (Her?)

How nice of you to provide us/me with this visual aid! These tutorials are sooooo useful for us newbies. Thank you!

And a galago, you say? I learned something new today :)

Your Fleurs D'Indiennes is so lovely. I think I need one of these soft toned colours in my collection. Somehow I always go for those bright and bold colourways.

8 May 2016 [Mothers Day] FLOWERS, FLOWERS, FLOWERS!

Today’s the day we honor Mothers,
But if you’re not one, then honor others –
The theme this week is simply FLOWERS
Enjoy and wear them, hours and hours.

Hermês loves roses, daisies too –
Orchids, lilies, pink or blue,
Common flowers or buds so rare,
Lots of flowers or here and there.

Bring yours out and show us how
You wear your flowers – the time is now!

OK, Brazil is a seriously wonderful scarf that I really haven't appreciated. This is GORGEOUS on you!!

The other day my SA was wearing a blue/violet 140 DD that I wanted to grab off her little neck. It was Brazil. Hm....

Thanks for sharing!
