The Ember Ruby Wine Glass Lanyard

             The Ember Ruby Wine Glass Lanyard


A friend shared a picture of a wine glass lanyard that she would like to have. I couldn't find a similar pattern so I made my own.


I've named my design 'The Ember Ruby Wine Glass Lanyard' in memory of my granddaughter, who was born prematurely at 20 weeks gestation, and lived for 3 hours.
Ember Ruby is a treasured member of our family.
Her mummy and daddy have been inspired by her short life. Their mission is to develop a design business, Ember Design, to carry on their daughter's name and to help others visualise their ideas.
They are taking part in a crowd funding project Spark My Potential
to raise the funds that they need.



I have written up the pattern for The Ember Ruby Wine Glass Lanyard .
There is no charge for this  pattern, but if you would like to pledge a few dollars to Ember Design's Project, that would be great.
