Name tag ready for delivery


 I have added a pin to the name tag to wear.
 
Blogger is getting more and more challenging. 
I am still having trouble commenting, except on 
Jane Eborall's blog. ;)
If I use Google Chrome browser it won't let me 
add pictures now. So I am using Firefox browser.
 
As for other crafting, I made a Go Blue sign in 
plastic canvas for a guy who asked me to
(I think it's for football-I am NOT into sports!!!).
 

And for crochet, I made another scarf(working on 
enhancing with words). It's a Bible(can be a book 
of any kind you like).
Pattern by The Crochet Collector on Etsy.





Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Happy tatting and crafting everyone!! :)
Can't wait!! Tomorrow is Tollway Tatters again!! :)

A Tatted "Name Tag"

 

I was working on trying to make a "name tag" for 
someone I know and struggled a ton with it, 
but today after watching 2 video tutorials 
and sitting down and realizing I need to 
slow down and do extra checks, I got it done 
and it really didn't take that long, which is 
frustrating since it has taken me over a month 
to figure out.
Here it is done with the tatting part. Next is to 
get a pin or something to be able to wear it. 😉
It's Robin Perfetti's Meandering Bookmark from 
Four Dozen Tatted Bookmarks book.
Only tatters will find my mistakes(yep, there are mistakes!!!)

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and 
get some tatting in!! :)

Still having trouble commenting, but I do have some things to show

 Blogs have me as Anonymous, but I am not. ;) 
I leave my name and blog name so people know it's me.

I haven't had much time lately, but am gaining a little.
I had a cross I needed to tat for a lady. It's ready to go, 
but she was sick yesterday so I will bring it till I see her. 
**update: so sorry, I forgot to say it is tatted with Lizbeth 
size 40 Purple Iris Fusion-hard to see through the plastic.



I have also been working on crochet which I am so 
excited about....besides my tatting.  ;)
I made a cocoa mug scarf(you should know that I 
LOVE cocoa!!!).
***update, my apologies, I forgot to say the pattern 
is from Crochet Collector on facebook and Etsy.

 And, I am on a plastic canvas project for a guy 
who wants a Go Blue sign(for football I think-
I am not into sports). ;)
***another update- this sign is finally done:


So, I am doing something.

Have a wonderful week and happy Tatting!!  :)
