Rainbow Taffy Cathedral Doily #1 started

I have the first 10 rows of 33 done, on the first of 2 

of these doilies(and I am only getting ready for row 

23 on mine).  ;)

Oh, for those who don't know, this doily pattern is

Well, that is all to show for now.

Our outdoor ministry is starting this Sunday 

morning(2 months later than normal), so I 

have to get busy getting everything in order 

and together, plus also to get the Sunday night 

stuff done.  Lots to do.

Have a wonderful and blessed weekend!!!  :)

Elaine P. Gan's new book is available now

For those who have seen the items I have test tatted:

A Start.....

I have a senior who loves the Cathedral Doily I 

am test tatting(and only on row 23 of 33).  She 

wants 2 in Lizbeth Rainbow Taffy(size 40) before 

Christmas.  Well, I have made a start and have the 

first 7 rows of the first doily done.

 Our daughter was out of state for 2 weeks and came 

home bearing gifts(not for dad, but for mom!).

I love Tigger and my collection is growing,

and this adorable multicolored monkey will add 

to my ever growing stuffed animal collection.

 I just have to show those fabulous sparkly purple 

eyes and ears!!! :)

Have a fabulous day!!!

Happy Tatting!

Cathedral Doily row 22 of 33 done

Well, it's still progressing!!

All the threads are Lizbeth size 40.  These last 2 

rows are Sea Island Citrus.

It measures 1 foot across.

 Here is a picture for size comparison.

Have a wonderful tat-filled day!! :)

Well, I also got a test tatted snowflake done today!

Another Elaine P. Gan design.

Have a great night!! :)

Re-test tatting Snowflakes

These are more of Elaine's designs.  

I have test tatted these before, but she said she 

made some changes(not noticeable).

The first one doesn't look as good scanned, but 

it's here.  It's Lizbeth size 40 Purple Dk. with 

tiny purple beads.

 The picture below is the original I test tatted 

quite some time ago.

 This one is supposed to have 6 points, but I goofed 

and it has 7, but I really like it!!!

It's tatted in Lizbeth size 40 Bright Orange with 

orange seed beads.

 The picture below is the original I tatted quite 

some time ago and notice, I paid attention to 

the directions and it only has 6 points.  ;)

Hope you are having a wonderful day!!

Happy Tatting!!  :)

Adding to this post...

Got another one re-test tatted.

This one is Lizbeth size 20 Blue Ice.

I love the star in the center, the frilly center and 

arms, and the solid outline.

 The picture below is the one test tatted awhile ago.

Have a great night!  :)

Rows 20 & 21 of 33

Still tatting along.  Have to get working on the 

other 2 which need to be completed before 

December.

The other 2 are to be tatted with Lizbeth Rainbow 

Taffy, but here is my current dilemma which I am 

going to order more.  I have 2 balls and they are 

drastically different in color.

Oh well, hopefully they will be started next week!

Happy tatting and have a wonderful week!! :)

Another "doily" suncatcher done

I am trying to empty the shuttles I used to tat the 

bracelets for my friend. And since I love suncatchers 

and I think this Cathedral Doily design from Elaine 

P. Gan works beautifully I keep tatting them.

 This one is in size 40 Lizbeth Vineyard Harvest with 

pink seed beads and a large metal ring. The picture 

below shows how big it is on a sheet of copy paper.

Here are the 4 I have tatted trying to empty shuttles.

Each is unique!!  Slight changes to enhance the sparkle.

 I love to see the beads in windows!!! :)

Happy Tatting and have a wonderful day!!! :)
