I had thought about using some of the Christmas buttons
on a garland, but hadn't decided on the tatted garland
design. Well...last night while sitting and watching a
Christmas movies(of course!!!), I decided just to try one
of two that I was deciding between. It's Mary Konior's
Three Blind Mice from the book Tatting Patterns. Tatted
in size 20 Lizbeth Snow White.
Last night and a bit early this afternoon and it was the
length of a folder. I figured it was going to be too small
and would end up on a tabletop tree.

And, a little more time and just checking to see what it
will look like on a large tree(6ft). I think it will stand
out nicely!!! :) So, on with more tatting and buttons
to see how long it will get. ;)
Hope you are having a wonderful tatting filled week!! :)

What a good idea! It will look fabulous on the tree, however long it is.
I love the idea of a tatted garland. And your choice of pattern is perfect!!
It looks gorgeous already! You could leave the shuttle attached when you hang it on the tree this year, and keep tatting to make it even longer for NEXT year, too. :-) I think it might be fun to have a shuttle hanging on the tree, too.

SWtrompeter, funny! I looked at the picture after I took it and thought, wow, how appropriate for a tatter's tree. ;)
That's a new idea and its looks great on a christmas tree, I wonder if when you do your craft fair if anyone will buy it.
Thank you very much Margaret!!! :)
