A Pop Top Drop

It's Diane's Silver Crowns Ice Drop pattern from 

Ice Drop Addicts on Facebook.

A picture to show how it started.

 Tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Salmon Med. with tiny 

iridescent beads.  I love how it came out!!!

 The doily and the Pop Top Drop both bring lots 

of color here!!!  For the last several weeks the snow

had been melting and everything was brown, but 

this morning everything is white and since my 

Christmas tree is put away I really needed some 

color!!!!  :)  Yay tatting!!!

Have a wonderful day with tatting!!! :)

Daniela Mendola tat-a-long doily finished

I finished!!  :)

The link to the pattern is here:  http://danielamendola.blogspot.com/2020/02/tatting-sharing-round-5-chiacchierino.html
It's size 40 Lizbeth Bright Yellow, Sunkist Coral, 

Raspberry Pink Med., and Christmas Green.

Thanks for all the suggestions and well wishes 

on my calf pain.  I am hoping it goes away.  I 

think it could be a bad cramp like when I was 

pregnant for our first and it lasted 3 days and 

was horrible!!

Have a super day and get some tatting in!!  :)

Got 4th row done

It took a bit, but I got it done.

I wanted to show you after sewing the 

ends in, but...I forgot.
I am on the final row, but....I found 

a mistake on the 4th row and had to 

figure a way to make it work.

I can't do too much because something 

is causing my right calf to hurt and it's 

swollen so, tatting is something I can do 

while just sitting around.

I am half way around the final row so, 

I might be able to show it tomorrow.  

Have a wonderful Tuesday!!! :)

I got one point of the 4th row accomplished.

I had to do it my way to get it to work out correctly.

I started at the ring where the "tails" are coming out, 

tatted the top section, then came across the bottom 

joining appropriately.
Now I believe I have 10 more to do.

Hope you are getting your tatting in today!! :)

Have a wonderful day!!! :)

Row 3 done

This row went somewhat quickly.

I kept thinking "fabulous daffodils" for some odd 

reason(only thought could be the colors).  ;)

Size 40 Lizbeth Bright Yellow and Christmas Green.
Pattern found here:  http://danielamendola.blogspot.com/2020/02/tatting-sharing-round-5-chiacchierino.html

I have restarted row 4 three times today so I am 

letting it sit until my brain can process how to tat 

it.  It shouldn't seem so hard, but it could be from the 

lack of brain cells due to a really odd schedule 

lately.  Oh well, I shall continue to try soon.

Have a wonderful week!!! :)

Daniela Mendola tat-a-long Doily

Many have joined in Daniela Mendola's tat-a-long:

http://danielamendola.blogspot.com/2020/02/tatting-sharing-round-5-chiacchierino.html I ended up seeing it after the 3rd row was posted. Well,

I have been wanting to tat something with colors from

these flowers

that Marilee Rockley-Yarnplayer made into a
hand dyed thread(HDT). I love the flower colors so I
thought I might have some colors close. So...I started
and have the first 2 rows done.

The threads are Lizbeth size 40 Bright Yellow,

Sunkist Coral, and Raspberry Pink Med.

Have a fabulous tatting filled day!!!

Muskaan's Sway My Heart- Addition

Worked on muskaan's Sway My Heart-link:

https://tipsaroundthehome.blogspot.com/2020/02/such-sways-and-swaggers.html  . 

I added some regular chain and then some 

treble tatting(not the best, but learning in 

size 40-I don't know how Ninetta Caruso does

 it in size 80!!!). ;)

If I get time again, I would change it a bit and 

bring the treble tatting into the center. I do 

like the effect with the rings and the treble tatting 

in a row.  

Have a wonderful day and get some tatting in!! :)

2 Pink Crosses

This is Elaine P. Gan's New Cross(with an 

error) in size 40 Lizbeth Pink Parade.

 This is her Chantilly Cross in the same 

thread. A few errors, but I repeated them 

so they are not noticeable.

Been busy and actually unpacked 2 boxes 

yesterday.  There are tons more boxes, but 

a little progress is far better than none!!!

Have a fabulous tatting filled day!! :)

Muskaan's Sway my Heart center

Picture is not great, but then again, neither 

is my heart.  ;)
I am not quite sure what I did wrong, but it 

doesn't look terrible.  ;)
Deciding on whether to try an outer row or 

start again with a larger thread.  I used size 

40 and I believe Muskaan used size 10.
Maybe then again, since this heart is swayed, 

it fits the challenge??

Have a great day and don't forget to 

tat even a few stitches.  ;)

A Bracelet

I tatted a bracelet. I had a much different plan in mind.

 I wanted clovers in a row and tip to tip, but, when 

tatting it curved into a circle(square), so I just tatted 

several and had to figure a way to join them per our 

daughter's request, so...this is what I ended up with

-not following anyone's pattern, just tatting. Size 10 

Lizbeth Mocha Brown Dk. with wooden beads someone 

gave me a long time ago(for my kids-when they were 

young to use). I have to add a clasp yet.

Getting some tatting done!! :)

Have a great night!!

A Heart and unexpected guests

This is Gloria Nelson's With All My Heart in Lizbeth

 size 40 Caribbean. 2nd picture is size comparison.

Our daughter had a pirate event today, and my hubby 

got called into work so tatting is less interrupted, but 

while talking to a friend on the phone there were 

unexpected visitors checking the mail.  ;)  How many 

deer does it take to check the mail??  Apprently 4 or 

5.   :D
