Plenty to show tonight

Here is the mat that I started.  I need to sew in the 

ends and block it, but it's done!! :)

 Here it is on the printer paper to show size.

Tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Falling Leaves.

Here it is on the pocket notebook for size. 

 I have a friend who makes fabric yoyos for her 

sister and niece for projects.  I thought it would 

be cool to make some yoyos, add tatting and put 

on barrettes or headbands.  Well, since there isn't 

much to do here, I asked our daughter to help me 

and she did all these after I showed her how to do 

the first, and then she was inspired with project 

ideas of her own, so, you may see the finished 

ideas soon.  ;)

 I made the yoyos below.

 She left me have one of hers for this 

Ice Drop embellishment.

 I emptied shuttles making small motifs to add to 

some of the yoyos.

 Today, our daughter, Sarah, made these 2 yoyo 

pumpkins(and another later).  Super cute.  Later 

when I get access to my tatting threads, I will tat 

leaves for them.

 Then I tatted a snowflake. I found the pattern when 

searching google and it came from pinterest.  The 

designer is DorARTthea.

 And today I tatted this angel by designer Nicola 

Gooday Bowersox at Just-Tatting on Facebook.

It's called Julie's Angel.

Hope you all have had a great day!!!

Happy Tatting all!!! :)

Square 3 of 4 added to the mat, and a new idea in progress.

The mat is getting close to getting completed.

Could be a day or two depending on what life 

throws my way.

I figured out that I mess up tons more when I 

am in the process of joining one to another so...

this last one has more joins and WILL get full 

attention!!!

And....I needed a color change in the middle so...

I started another idea and guess what it includes...

of course, Ice Drops.  So, this is how far I got today 

before I decided that I needed to get that square 

done today.  I will keep you posted as the project 

progresses and hopefully works!
Oh, this is the basic pattern, but I think it's been so 

long that I got my chains mixed up, but I like 

the look so I am keeping it this way.  ;)

I hope you had a great day and got your tatting in!! 

:)

Square 2 added to my mat

Again, this pattern is: http://plant.mints.ne.jp/takara/tatting/Azulejo200.pdf

Tatting it in size 40 Lizbeth Falling Leaves.

I want to add 2 more and make it a square.   Not 

sure I could handle adding more.  It's a challenge.

Below shows that it's just a bit larger than the 3in. x 5in. 

pocket notebook.

I have just a bit left on one shuttle so...

I may just tat another pair of Maple Leaf earrings 

to take a small break from this and also to use up that 

thread before I have to add more.

Have a wonderful night and a great tatting day tomorrow!! :)

Working on my first tatted mat

Working on a very challenging pattern(for me!!).

I think I should be a master at "un-tatting".

First picture to show it up close, second picture is to

show size, it's on a pocket notebook which is 3in. x 5in.

 I tried to tat from the computer, but I am better if 

I have it printed or written out so I can place 

something under each line a I tat, and then I used 

the computer and placed the mouse on the area 

I am working on the diagram.Think I will keep this small, 

so planning on adding 3 more to it.

It looks easy enough, but my mind seems 

to struggle a lot working it!!
For those following our house/land situation-

there is now a septic system finally installed, 

but otherwise it is still bare land.

Hope you are getting in tatting and having 

a great day!!!  :)

Saw this video a couple of times now and had 

to share.  I have enough trouble tatting while 

seeing, I can't imagine tatting all the beautiful 

items while blind!!!
