More tatted Pop Top Ice Drop ornaments and Christmas Button ornaments, and Angel earrings with tatting

These first 4 were completed this weekend and the 
pink finished this morning.

All 3 Pop Top ornaments are in size 40 thread.

These angel earrings are tatted with size 40 Lizbeth 
Cranberry bush.  I wanted a pair with Christmas 
colors.

The gingerbread man will remain with me, and a 

friend loves the Christmas tree with the reindeer so 

you know where that will end up.  ;)

Have a tatting filled week!!! :)

 

Doilies and a button ornament

I started Renulek's 2021 Spring Doily.

Too many things going, but temptation has 

overtaken me!!!  :)
I am using size 40 Yarnplayer's HDT Brilliant Sunset 

and Lizbeth Boysenberry Dk.(so far). 
I had made a mistake and only tatted 6 rings in 

the center, and thought it was correct, until...

I noticed after "completing" the second round 

that it was supposed to be 8.  Thankfully the 

fix wasn't too bad since I just untied the threads 

on both rounds and added and finished both.

I work on the Christmas doily often, but it's slow 

moving since it's like tatting 5 or 6 rounds at a 

time.  I do like it!! :)
(Those pretty earring looking gems off on 

the left are some my daughter has asked me 

to make into earrings for her).

I have the book I am tatting my Christmas 

doily from.  Here is it.

And below is the picture of the doily in the book.

Next, I just had to play with an idea in my 

mind for button tatting.  It works, but can be a bit 

tough when closing the front rings.  ;)
Front:

Tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Sea Island Citrus.
Back:

Oh, and our daughter gave me these 

from a craft pack she got.  They are 

large sequins.  Something new to tat 

around or with.  ;)

Well, that should be enough for now. 
Hope you all have a tatting filled week!! :)

 

Loving this "tatting before Christmas" spree!!!

I tatted another tiny snowflake, this time in size 20 

Lizbeth Snow White with gold seed beads, also 

another with blue beads(size 40) and there are only

2 blue beads left-I knew I might not have enough.

And, I have already tatted a 2nd size 20 with gold 

 seed beads.

I have been enjoying tatting the button tatted ornaments 

in the facebook group, with all Diane's wonderful 

patterns and a few others. The one below is from 

Renata(Renulek).  I love the design and decided I 

wanted an angel in the center, so I tatted it and on 

last ring I tried to slide all the angel beads on the 

thread, but ended up with such a mess, that I took 

it out and pulled a separate piece of thread through 

the angel beads and tied it around the core thread 

and tatted the rest of the ring and sews the separate 

thread ends into the ring.
I love it!!! :)

I hope you are having a great weekend with tatting!!!  :)

 

Another of Diane's Button Ornaments

This is Dec. 5 Button Ornament.
Tatted in Lizbeth size 20 Christmas Delight.
I think this one is my favorite so far!!!  ;)

Hope you have an awesome tatting filled week!!!  :)

 

A doodad Starflake and Tatted Button Ornaments

I have been tatting for me lately(other than Diane's 

temptation of button ornaments-I love her designs!). 

I came across my "snowflake" doodads and decided 

to try and design a new and larger snowflake than the 

ones I did back when doodads were popular.  Well, 

It's larger and I love how the star shape matches the 

star design in the center of the doodad!!!  :)
I am calling it a Starflake since it's more of a star 

than a snowflake.  ;)
Tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Blue Ice.

I tatted Diane's Button Ornament Base #1.

If you don't know about the facebook group for 

Tatted Button Ornaments you should check it out!
There are so many patterns being shared!!

I also just finished tatting Diane's Dec. 2 Tatted 

Button Ornament.

And Diane's Dec. 3 Tatted Button Ornament.

Hope you are all having a wonderful tatting filled 

Saturday!!! :)
