So I made what I call my "psychadelic fly door". It came out awesome!!! Thanks for the idea!! Btw...I stopped counting too!

Not that it really matters as it looks amazing and, I'm sure, sounds really soothing.

I used to love ribbon curtains when I was young, our neighbour had one I remember. The butcher's shop in the next village has a heavy bead curtain across their door, perhaps more environmentally friendly than air-con and fly-exterminators. Have fun with the university prospecting. We collected our daughter from Kent yesterday and stopped en route at Faversham, a gem of a town and then went on to Oare Marshes, a very special nature reserve which was absolutely stunning in the June sunshine.

I remember being in England and noticing that there were not a lot of 'screens' on windows and doors like we have and wondered how the bugs were kept out. You have answered my question! Love hearing of the plastic strings of childhood as well.

I love the idea of this curtain and would willingly have a go at crocheting the pelmet but fear the strings would never get finished. However, one of my girls has a broken curtain that consists of short lengths of plastic tube threaded onto string with each tube separated by a fabric flower. The flowers are rather dusty and tired now but I think I'd have the patience to crochet some flowers to replace them. A task for a sunny afternoon sitting under the shade of tree I think.Annehttp://www.annewheaton.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-22640027635716391342015-06-05T09:48:40.770+01:002015-06-05T09:48:40.770+01:00That is, quite simply, a stroke of crochet genius!...That is, quite simply, a stroke of crochet genius!!!<br /><br />Try eating copious amounts of Marmite - biting insects are said to loathe it and steer well clear!<br /><br />Heather xxPink Milkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05664644078460614884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7270442039937122804.post-46373381206105191242015-06-05T07:47:15.255+01:002015-06-05T07:47:15.255+01:00We should get together and have a bite off.
