Bookmarks with heavy beads & tassels

This first bookmark was supposed to be longer, but 

I was running out of thread so it's for a pocket 

prayer book .

 The next two bookmarks are from the book 

Tatted Bookmarks Needle & Shuttle edited by 

Barbara Foster.

 These next 2 are inspired from the book Tatting 

Patterns by Mary Konior.  The first is inspired from 

the Interlocking Clovers(and this is my favorite).

This one was inspired by Sweethearts.  :)

All of these are tatted with size 20 Lizbeth Rainbow 

Splash and size 40 of the solids.

The beads on the 4 larger bookmarks are very heavy 

so if you put them at the top of the book with the bookmark 

completely inside then they work fine.

Happy Tatting everyone!!!  :)

Spring Doily and Christmas Wreath Bow edging updates

It's another 2-in-1 picture.

This is the Christmas Wreath Bow edging surrounding 

the Spring Doily.  I have been making slow progress 

on both while tatting along on other projects too. Like 

the suncatcher in the previous post today.

 Here is a closer view so you can see how much of the 

doily row is left before I get to start the next row. 

I haven't measured it, but I think the red edging is about 

a yard in length.  I think I have about a foot or so to go 

and then I can work on the other side and then add to 

the width.

Have a wonderful day with tatting!!!  :)

A Suncatcher

I tatted a suncatcher for a friend.

It's tatted in size 20(Lizbeth) HDT from Custom Cotton Etc. on Etsy-  link here:

The colorway name is *Over the Rainbow*.  

It's so much prettier in real life and in the sunshine!!!

I ended up making up the design since the one I started with 

was "stretched" by adding the beads.

I can't wait to see her face!!  :)

Have a fabulous day of tatting!!!  :)

Half way around!!!

Now, to just get the other half done!!!  :)

And I have been working on my Christmas wreath 

bow edging, but not much difference in length yet.

And a Christmas Secret has been finished too.  :)

Happy Tatting everyone!!!  :)

Still tatting along(a very long!!!!!!!!!!)

It feels like these rows are taking me forever, and 

ever, and ever.  But I know I shall make it to the 

end some day!!!  :)

I am guessing I have about 1/4 done so far.  I am 

again marking 10 repeats hoping to meet the goal 

or exceed it each time.

The lighting is bad cuz' it's almost 9pm here, but 

I just had to post some progress!!!  :)

Happy tatting and have an awesome day!!!  :)
