Needing to tat something different and having some
gems that I could make into Ice Drops, I decided to
try, but I used size 40 thread and the tatting was too
tight for the gem.
Below is the comparison. I have had these blue gems
for several years in a fish type bowl my daughter had
received for a candle and she gave it to me. so I
thought I would try. This is Diane's Ice Drop
Tutorial pattern:
Oh, side note, I tatted a ring at the top when I finished
tatting the pattern.
I had to find something to put inside the tatting(of
course!), so I went and found a left over clear rose
bead from the large pink suncatcher I made(you can
see the beads clearly here and even zoom in:
I like that you can see right through it. :)
Well, that is all for now.
Have a wonderful tat-filled day!!! :)

I'm so glad you started with blue!
Wow, I just made one today too, and may post it tonight, I had gems that were too big and use a button instead.
It looks like you are well on your way to being addicted to making these ice drops!
Thank you all!!! :)
Diane, it was what was on the shuttle, and it is what would have gone with the blue "gem" had it worked. :)
