So tempted!!!

 I gave in and started a new project!!!!
I have several pages in the Doily books marked and 
and I gave in and started one, but....I didn't tat the 
whole doily because I love it just like this(well, I 
HAVE to sew in ends yet!!).  ;)
This is Anya Doily 1 from Lovely
Tatting Doilies for Fall and Winter.
I only tatted 8 of the 12 rows, and I didn't 
use split rings to climb out because I wanted 
rings a solid color and chains variegated.
I had this Fun in the Sun HDT from Custom 
Cotton Etc on Etsy in size 10(the pattern calls 
for size 30), and the only solid to go with it I 
had in size 20 Lizbeth Azalea Med. which I 
used 2 strands to make it close to size 10.
I love it!!!  :)



During the Christmas weekend I tatted Jennifer Williams 
Flower motif using overlapped picots(aka Ikuta picots).
I used size 20 Lizbeth Snow White and Christmas Red, and 
I made mistakes in the overlapping, but it still looks ok.

I also received my Pop Tops and Epoxy domes, 
and I downloaded my images I purchased and I 
got busy and now I have plenty of Pop Tops ready 
to become Pop Top Drop ornaments for next year!!


And, I bought these gorgeous Solar Quartz cabochons 
I purchased to tat around.  I CAN'T wait to start using 
them!!! ;) I bought them off Etsy for those who are curious.
Have a wonderful tatting filled day!!! :)
