Twin Rainbow Taffy Doilies Done --- This could be the last post for awhile

Please forgive the bad quality photo, but I had to 

get this done early because we have a granddaughter 

invasion this afternoon and a house that needs a 

lot of cleaning amidst the packing for moving.

Here are the twin doilies with all ends sewn in 

and they have been blocked.

They measure 20 inches across.

 Below is a picture of them in front of our loveseat.

Yep, they are large!!!  :) I will deliver them Sunday 

evening.

As for this being possibly the last post for awhile:

we have to be moved out by next weekend and 

still have no place to go.  We have been working 

on getting a manufactured home on land, but their 

process is taking forever!!!!  There is a possibility 

closing next week, but we still need somewhere to 

go, and a place for all our stuff.  I have been packing 

for what seems like forever, and am not anywhere 

near done(you sure do accumulate tons of stuff in 

33 years of marriage-and I have gotten rid of lots).
So....until the next post happy tatting and may you 

be blessed!!!!!!!!  :)

Another suncatcher distraction(for peace of mind!!!)

Same thread as the last one, and the 

beads are the same, except the larger ones

which are the same kind just 6mm while 

the smaller outer ones are the 4mm.

I designed while tatting so it's an original,

for now anyway.  ;)

Have a tatting filled Saturday!!! :)

Suncatcher distraction!!

I tatted an Ice Drop suncatcher using Sue Hanson's 

Crystals in a ring pattern(link: https://web.archive.org/web/20120811100815/http://freespace.virgin.net/bo.hanson/Tatting/CrystalRing/CrystalsRing.html around a basic Ice Drop.

I used Lizbeth size 40 Honey Drizzle thread and some 

of my new 4mm crackle beads.

I needed the distraction from the twin doilies due to 

making the same mistake a 2nd time and not noticing 

it until I was almost done with the next row of chains, 

so it was time to set it aside and not tat for a couple of 

days and then tat something else for a change of color 

and pace.

Well, I am back to working on twin doily which needs 

to be finished tatting.  I am doing my best to keep a 

closer watch on my work now.

Have a great week!!! :)
