Test Tatted Choker necklace

I test tatted this for Elaine P. Gan.

It's in size 40 Lizbeth thread with white beads.

I need to straighten the flowers!

 Below is the full choker.

 Below is a close-up.

Merry Christmas everyone!!! :)

Tablecloth update

January 2011 until now.

 Progress(slow progress) is being made.  I have all 

the ends finally sewn in and most of the sides are 

even.  I like the design that is emerging.
Below is a close up of the design.

Have a wonderful day!! :)

Today's agenda

Pumpkin Pies and Tatting
I need to have 8 pumpkin pies for tomorrow night 

so....I will be busy today, and since cooking time 

is 40-50 minutes....

 I figure there will be tatting in between, and I 

still have 2 test tattings to do.

Have a wonderful day and hopefully lots of tatting 

too!!! :)

Test tatting & Restocking

I have been able to test tat more for Elaine P. Gan.

I have realized that she must use larger thread 

than I do.  I prefer and have mostly size 40 so..

When I finished the 2 crosses I realized they are 

almost the same size as the photos on the patterns.

Love the designs!

Next, I needed to restock and be prepared to tat for 

next year's Craft Shows, so...he is what I have gotten 

so far.  I do have other items needed, and some were 

on back order so I have to reorder them later.

Lots of thread and beads for all different projects. 

Have a wonderful day!!! :)

Tatted bookmark? And Angel ring

I was able to test tat a bookmark for Elaine P. Gan, 

but...I used size 40 thread and clearly she must use 

a larger size because you can see it isn't bookmark size.

I tatted it with my Snowflake Shuttle, and used 

Yarnplayer's Snowflake HDT-so beautiful!!!

I might tat 2 more of these joining to the end to 

make a better sized bookmark.

 I have the most awesome shuttles ever!!!!

I special ordered them from Rita at Shuttle by Design:

I love them, and there may be more on the way!

 I also tatted West Pine Creations Angel Ring,

I used size 40 Lizbeth Christmas Red and Snow White, 

and adjusted the stitch count which made it look 

different than hers, but our daughter loves it!!

Have a wonderful Saturday!!! :)

Spending, spending, spending......

Well....not exactly yet, but all the online carts are ready.

I have plenty of tatting supplies I want or need, or just 

need to replenish.

But....while searching for all the things I want or need 

I found beads that remind me of 2 Lizbeth thread colors.

From Firemountain Gems:

Looks like Lizbeth Caribbean.

And...

Looks like Lizbeth Coral Splash.

Well....back to deciding to actually push the 

proceed to check out buttons on all 6 carts.

Have a wonderful day!!! :)

A Second Craft Show

Saturday I was able to participate in another 

Craft Show.  My husband, daughter and friend 

were all there to help(so thankful for that!!).

The tables were fully loaded with things.

Pictured below is the "front" table with mostly

tatted items.

 Next is the side table with items made by our 

friends.

 A close-up view of our Christmas tree 

displaying tatted angels, Ice Drops, 

and a few snowflakes.

 Next, is mostly tatted jewelry, and a 

few bookmarks.

 A better view of the center of the table.

 Our daughter convinced me to sell some of my 

ornaments with tatting on them(so hard to part 

with!!!).

We had a great day!!  I already have the information 

for 2 of the Craft Shows to join in next year, and am

working on getting information for at least 4 more.

Have a wonderful day!!!  :)
