It's been so gray.....

That I decided to tat rainbows!!!
And then.....the sun came out!!
I saw these beautiful earrings years ago when I 
first started tatting and tried them, but in size 10
(which was all I had back then) the rainbow was 
too large for an earring, so....The first pair are 
tatted in size 20 Lizbeth Snow White, and the 
2nd pair are in Lizbeth size 40 Snow White.
There isn't much difference in size.

 Below is a close-up(of the size 20).
Have a beautiful day and lots of tatting!! :)

2 More Pairs of Teardrop Earrings

As I said in the previous post, I have been following 
the suggestions of our daughter.
First, Lizbeth size 20 Christmas Red with gold beads.
 Second, Lizbeth size 20 Lilac Dk. with dark purple 
beads which if seen in person have like an oil slick 
rainbow in the color(the scanner makes them look 
black every time).
Hope you are having a wonderful day and getting 
lots of tatting done!!! :)

Test tatted necklace and Test tattings

This is another Elaine P. Gan design.
Exquisite Neckpiece.  I LOVE this one!!!
I want to tat it again, but longer!!!
It's tatted in Lizbeth size 40 Black with seed beads.
 Here's the close-up.  Needs some blocking.
I also test tatted 2 bracelet patterns.
One still in progress....
And...one turned into a bookmark.
And....A Rose Heart(revised).
Looks like we are getting a small break from the 
frigid temps so life might become a little more 
"normal" again.  Hope you have a wonderful 
tatting filled Saturday!!! :)
