Ice Drop Suncatcher #2

I am on a roll to use up the thread on the shuttle so

it's another size 40 Lizbeth Rainbow Taffy.

This time with a purple center gem and purple seed 

beads.

 Need to sew in that end, but it's done.

Have a wonderful Saturday and Sunday.

Happy tatting!!! :)

An Ice Drop Suncatcher

I needed a suncatcher for a drawing in the next 

Craft Show in 2 weeks so I decided to use an 

Ice Drop as the center of my suncatcher.

This is the Birthday Ice Drop pattern tatted in 

size 40 Lizbeth Rainbow Taffy with iridescent 

seed beads and bugle beads and pink seed beads.

 And added to a pink bangle bracelet.

I love suncatchers and Ice Drop suncatchers 

are unique and fun!! :)  There might be 

more to come.

Have a wonderful day and hopefully some 

tatting time!!! :)

Doilies updates

I just finished row 25 of 33 on the twin doilies.

And finished row 29 of 33 on my doily on the bottom.

Hope you are having a wonderful day of tatting!! :)

Craft Show pictures

The weather was nice and there were lots of nice 

people, but not quite so many customers.  As a 

matter of fact...no sales for me-oh well, in 3 weeks 

I try again.  ;)

 Close-up.

 Another.

 Another.

 Final.

 I wrote about our daughter attending Pirate events 

and wanting to take some of my tatting to their next 

event to place on their vending table.

Well, at the last event she received this shell pendant 

and she figured I could add tatting, so I did.

 Here is the full necklace..

 Here is the close-up.

It's tatted in Lizbeth size 40 Raspberry 

Frappe with little cream colored beads.

If you catch the shell at just the right 

angle you will see a glimmer of pink so 

that is why we chose(yep, our daughter 

is my color consultant) this colorway.

I think it turned out really well, and she 

is going to take it with other tatted pieces 

next weekend to her next Pirate event and 

see if they sell.  :)

Hope you have a fabulous tatting filled 

weekend!! :)

I think I am ready for the Craft Show

A few more angels and a bracelet.

And, our daughter is part of a Pirate thing(not sure 

what exactly it is, but they hold events and dress up) 

She has an event which has vending in it and the 

group she is with has a table and she has told them 

about my tatting and has been ok'd to bring some to 

see if it sells.  She wants me to prepare some items 

for a big one sometime in the summer and her 

suggestions have been slave bracelets and cuff 

bracelets, plus my normal stuff.  Now to fit all that 

in with a move this summer-YIKES!!  ;)

Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!

Yes, I am still here and have been tatting.

I got a sweet e-mail from Stephanie wondering if 

everything was ok since I haven't posted in awhile.

I have been preparing for 2 Craft Shows-one this 

Saturday, and another Apr. 13th.

I had this choker done, but needed a way to make 

it adjustable and couldn't find anything so I decided 

to tat a split ring chain to use.  Ends sewn in and 

it's already for packaging.

 Next, I had the center of this necklace done also, 

but....again a chain was needed and a way for it 

to be adjustable, so tatting to the rescue.

 Close-up of the beads in the centers.

 And, I wanted to tat Jane's Bookmark as a bracelet 

and ran short on thread so just finished with a split 

ring tail to make it adjustable.  Tatted in size 40 

Lizbeth Niagara Falls.

*Twin Doily Update: the 2 Rainbow Taffy Cathedral 

doilies I have been tatting since last year are on row 

25, and the first one I started is at row 28(I believe).

And the tablecloth is accumulating motifs from time 

to time.

I am not sure how much tatting will be done through 

the spring because we are in a search for a new place 

to live and have to move before the end of June.

Will post whatever I can, but just know, I am not giving 

up tatting!!!
