I have been tatting, but....

 mostly taking care of an 83yr. old.  So tatting 
time and other things have set by the side.  I 
have gotten "needed" things done.
Here are some crosses I made for 3 friends, 
plus and extra:
The first two are sisters.

This next one is a married lady who's hubby got 
a coffee mug.

I wanted to empty shuttles so I have another cross.
(cross ends did get sewn in)  ;)


And, years(at the early part of my tatting journey) 
I tatted cross earrings for my mother-in-law and my 
niece.  Well, I am trying to tat them again and improve 
them.  They are ok, but still need work.  I have some 
friends who would like some. 
That is all the tatting for now.
I have some plastic canvas "name tags" to do.
Have a great week and try to get some tatting in!!!  :)

Good for you for getting some tatting done as well as looking after someone. Lovely crosses, bookmarks and earrings.

I love your choice of colors and that design. Where can I find that pattern? I might make them for Christmas cards this year.

This is a lovely cross pattern (including your cross earrings) - clean lines, balanced, and elegant. I haven't been doing much tatting either except for a dip here or there, although I have managed to do several pattern diagrams and PDFs. So, progress in some areas, not much in others.

Thank you so much muskaan!!! :)
Sometimes life gets super busy and other times it feels like things are super slow. Right now I would love to have the super slow so I can get more craft time in, but I will survive. ;)
