Weekend Tatting Update:

I finally added (simple) tatting to my 

Dorset button.  I like it.  It almost looks 

like a purple daisy.  ;)

I got row 5 of 9 done on the doily I am test 

tatting for Elaine P. Gan.

And...two still in work projects..

I hope your week is filled with beautiful 

tatting!!! :)

 

Happy to be Test Tatting again!!!

I am test tatting for Elaine P. Gan again and so 

happy!!  I love her designs!  And I have test tatted 

for her for 9 years, and I learned about Elaine in 2013, 

so, it's been 10 years since I first started tatting her designs. 

Rows 1 and 2 of Dolce Doily:

And Row 3 now completed.

I am using size 40 thread and will wait till it's 

finished to reveal all the colors.  ;)

Have a terrific day and get some tatting time in!! :)

 

Possible Christmas ornament

I bought silver and gold metal medallions and thought 

they would look great with tatting.  This is tatted with 

Lizbeth size 40 Angel's Love.  No actual pattern, just 

tatted.  I have several other ideas, but am trying to finish 

a few other projects(don't expect much control!!).

Hope you have a fantastic and tatting filled weekend!! :)

 

My first Dorset button!!

Well, it took me long enough to follow Diane(Lacelovinlibrarian.blogspot.com)

into trying Dorset buttons.  It took me several hours to get this 

done, so adding tatting will be later.  I really like it!! :)  But, 

next time I think I will use a larger thread instead of size 40!!! 
I used Lizbeth Rainbow Taffy and Lilac Dk.

This was a break from 2 other projects:

I hope you are having a great week and tatting!! :)

 

I have been working on my Large Tatted Triangle Insert

Well, it's not perfect, but the first test tat is 

done.  I am on the second and making changes 

to stitch counts and such.  I want the center to 

lie flat if possible.  I wish I was a looser tatter 

because I think that is quite a bit of my problem.

But, the center on the one I am tatting now is a 

bit better and lays nicer.....so far.
These will be insert for the sides of my shirts 

at the bottom, just to give a looser fit for the 

hips.

Today our daughter and I went shopping, and 

decided to get in trouble going and looking 

around Hobby Lobby(just looking is trouble), 

well......we got into a bit more trouble by 

actually spending money.  ;)
Here is what I got:

The cashier said I did very well!!  :)
So, lots of new things to add tatting to, or add to 

tatting.  ;)
Hope you have a great weekend and have tatting 

time!!! :)
