A glimpse into my future and possibly yours

As many Artists and Craftsmen out there know it is always good to think ahead and plan for the future so that if you ever get stumped you will have something to fall back on so today when I was working in my workshop a thought came to me what is it that I can do to my shuttles that I have not done yet so I thought and asked my wife to be (only 9 days) what would she like to see on the next one? She responded I would like to see *********** and some ******** and I thought well I can do that so I pulled out some Copper and started to saw and saw and saw well a bit of time later I had come up with this it is a 5.5 copper weaving shuttle for my next season line up yes I know that shape is still the same but what is that on the body? I will leave that up to you to determine but I like it and shazam I got hit with my next Idea for a 4 shuttle series but I really can not get to much into that just yet. It will be available just as soon as it is beta tested and quality checked (Noreen over at Hankering for yarn is eager to get her skilled hands on it).
well back to the workshop for me. Actually I have to polish my shoes for the wedding. I look very smart in my Tux if I do say so myself.

The design on the shuttle looks like a vine with small flowers or hearts on it. A little hard to tell just from the picture.
I'm looking forward to see you in the tux.
