Tatting Christmas Pop Top Drops and Mirror ornaments

 So, I have been tatting along.
I am working on these ornaments
for a couple of crafts shows the next
2 weekends.  I hope they are well liked!
Linda Davies 3D Christmas trees make
nice flat Christmas tree earrings.
All the Pop Top Drops and Mirror ornaments
are tatted with size 20 Lizbeth Snow White
and all have beads.
These first are just cute snowmen.

Next are my Mirror ornaments.  My hubby
saw the gold one and made me make a 2nd
and wants them to be made into earrings (not
for him of course).  ;)
I started with these 3, blue red, and green.
Then, a Christmas color mix, and then silver.
Then gold.
And then Frosty the Snowman Pop Top Drops. I
did tat one with blue beads, but I guess I didn't
take a picture.  Oh well.  ;)
I tatted this one while waiting for the turkey to cook.
I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!!! :)
Have a great weekend and get some tatting in!! :)

First craft show of 2021 for us

 I didn't prepare for craft shows this year because
I wasn't sure they would happen.  My daughter and I
signed up for 3 this year.
We just did our first Saturday and did pretty well,
especially since the first time we were in this one
we didn't sell anything.
Here are the pictures of our "booth".
This first section is our daughter's mermaid items
and autumn pumpkin decor.

I took the side table since I didn't have much.
They wanted us to have red table cloths which
neither of us like because it's hard to see how
nice things look sitting on red!
We had large hail on the way to the show. It only 
lasted about 10 minutes, but it was quite the heavy
downfall!!!

One of our dear sweet seniors came to me last night
and gave me these beautiful pillow cases.  She thought
they might be tatting.  I know they are not tatting, but
I have no idea what kind of lace this is so I told her I
would ask those who know more than me!!  ;)




I have been tatting!  I have a baby boy suncatcher
almost done, and a winter suncatcher in progress,
plus I have been adding motifs to my tablecloth,
and have Christmas tree earrings that need to be
tatted, and some Pop Top Drop ornaments waiting
to be done also. 
Hope you are all doing well and tatting along!!!
Happy Thanksgiving early since I don't know if
I will post again before then.  ;)
