Tatting and house update.

I have tatted Yarnplayer's Arches doily before(here: 
 and loved it.  Although, I tatted it in size 40 then and 
now in size 20-Lizbeth Coral Splash and Snow 
White.
Just to let everyone know the white row which looks
bunched does have overlapping under the large rings 
and it happened in the first one I tatted also.
 Next, I tatted Yarnplayer's Snowflake-pattern here:

 I have been working slowly on Ninetta's Treble Tatting 
Stitch and learning!!!  I started with size 40, then 
size 20, and went to the store and got size 3(very 
limited selection-5 solid colors to choose from).
I think it was my best idea!!!  I think my stitches 
are more even and work out much better!!
I have the first and second(small rings which didn't
close well) rows of a trial piece 
tatted and think it looks pretty good.
And, just got done with this snowflake below.

As for the house....frustration is the only word I have!
It's got the cinder blocks under it and a special coating 
on them and now as the picture shows the dirt is all the 
way up to the house.  The inside is not done and things 
have been delayed again, this time by the electric 
company and the contractor.  We were told electric would 
be connected to the house Nov. 1, but were just informed 
that has been changed to Nov. 6 due to the contractor not 
doing his job.  Oh man!!!!  It could be Christmas before 
we get to move in!!!
Hope you are all doing well and having a great day 
and getting your tatting fill!!  :)
