Just finished another cross....this one is mine!!!

This is Elaine P. Gan's My Portion Cross.  It is my favorite!!!  :)

It's tatted in size 40 Tatskool's HDT Rainbow Bright.

I decided this one is mine!!!  

I have a friend who saw it unfinished and requested one, but that is on hold for now. 

 I have test tatting to get to, but life.

Hope you have had a wonderful day and had some tatting time!!  :)

Small rainbow and large Scottish Thistle dream catcher earrings

I have one pair of the small rainbow dream catcher earrings done and am working on the second pair needed.  Oh, these are tatted in Tatskool's Rainbow Bright HDT size 100.

These are the large pair tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Scottish Thistle.

 I have now tatted 4 pairs of these(3 large & 1 small) and I still have 2 small to get done, plus a pair of cross earrings too.  I wonder if I will be able to tat any thing other than earrings again.....I have to!  I have other projects still needing finishing and tons on my want to do list!!  :)

Tatting something of my own design. Dreamcatcher Earrings.

 My daughter loves the look of Indian dreamcatchers and wanted some earrings that were like them.

I set about to make her a pair for Christmas thinking it would be easy enough.  Well, I got the first one done and thought it was awesome, but when I started the second one I realized I made a big mistake...Notice the one on the right(the first one done) looks ok, but it's really not.  When I covered the ring on the second(the one on the left) I realized that on the first I used size 40 Rainbow-licious from Jess, and mistakenly used size 100 Rainbow Bright from Tatskool in the center, which I used on the outside of the second.  So....I put it aside and left it quite frustrated by such a mistake.

Well, this week I decided to start over since my daughter found out about the project after the holiday and said she would like them bigger.  So, here are the finished ones(sorry the picture isn't very clear).  They are both done in size 100 Rainbow Bright HDT from Tatskool.  I think she will like them.  

2012 25 Motif Challenge: Motif #16

This is the Swirl Snowflake from Tatted Snowflakes by Vida Sunderman. It's tatted in size 100 Rainbow Bright HDT from Tatskool. I loved the look of this design and I figured I would like it best in colors, so....I decided I wanted rainbow and this is the only rainbow color thread I have left, and since I love the colors I used it. It's for a Christmas gift which will be posted later. :)

Oh my goodness!

I have tons of catching up to do on reading the blogs!!! I spent the weekend entertaining my 3yr. old granddaughter and that kept me more than busy!!!
I have been asked what I would do with my butterflies
(Mary's Butterflies: http://www.scribd.com/doc/69945786/My-Butterfly )
I have explained that they could go on lots of things, but here is what I have done so far.
The first is the Lizbeth Rainbow Taffy size 40 butterfly on a pink stretchy headband,
the second is Heather's(The Tarnished Tatter)HDT Harvest Time size 30 on a brown stretchy headband,
the third is Tatskool's Rainbow Bright size 100 on a white stretchy headband,
and then I have 2 done in YarnPlayers Corsage(one I goofed, but made it work),
and one extra Rainbow bright. And size comparisons for those curious. :)
The first headband is already sold and gone to my friend for her great niece. :)
