Tatting, tatting, tatting....

 I am still working on the baby girl suncatcher 

and the Ice Drop suncatcher, but our daughter 

was given a pair of earrings which were not her 

style and she gave them to me saying that tatting 

might enhance them for someone else, so...

(before and after using the pair)

I also just finished tatting another row on the 

baby girl suncatcher.  There may be another to 

help fill the ring, but I am not sure yet.

 

 

And, for those who know how much I love 

Christmas, last Saturday we set up the tree 

and found out the most of our lights have retired, 

so while waiting for new ones to arrive we 

made the plain tree look cute!!!  :)

Hope you are having a wonderful and 

tatting filled weekend!!! :)

Progress being made

 I just finished another row on my
baby girl suncatcher.  Another row
about ready to be started.

I have also been tatting an Ice Drop Suncatcher.

Have a wonderful rest of your week and hopfully 

get some tatting in!! :)

 

Center is done.

 Well, the center is done and I had to block
it to be able to work on the next row.

The next picture is trying to show the sparkle of the beads.

Have a great day and get some tatting relaxation in!! :)

New project in the works

 I wanted to wait until this was finished to show it,
but....I love it so much already I had to share!!  ;)

The pictures are all of the same project, but differ
just slightly in view.

And to show size...so far.

I love the characters which are supposed to be on a slight 

diagonal from each other..will work on that later.

I hope it makes you smile!!  :)
Happy tatting everyone!! :)

I have NEVER found this before in the time that I have been tatting

I have started lots of new balls of thread(Lizbeth),
but this is a first and very frustrating!!!
I got this ball out of one of my specialty packs
and when I went to find the beginning I found that the
thread wrapped around the outside of the ball was a
separate piece all together.  

I have had "slubs" and knots and such, but this is
almost a waste of thread.  I sure I don't find any
others like this!!!
Now, hopefully I will get back on track with my
tatting and hopefully I will have something to
show soon!  ;)  No promises!!!
Have a wonderful weekend and hopefully you
have better thread with your tatting!! :)

 

"Floating" tatting

 Our daughter was trying to keep busy during a 

medical appointment she brought me to, so she 

ended up "looking" through the Dollar Tree near 

there.

She found these 4in. x 4in. photo frames.

I saw someone who had placed tatting in some 

similar frames and she knew at one point I had 

been looking for some, so when she spotted these 

she got 2 for me to try.

I took 2 views to give you an idea of how the tatting
looks like it's floating.

Now I have to get good at centering!  ;)
Have a wonderful week of tatting!!! :)

 

Firefox

 It's funny, if I check the blogs using Google who is the creator of the blogs, well,

it won't allow me to comment, but if I use Firefox I don't have a problem, so I will 

use Firefox to check my Google blog from now on.  ;)

I should have some posts soon because our daughter and I are getting prepared to 

be in 2 and now possibly 3 craft shows in November and December.  We are 

excited.
Have a wonderful tatting filled weekend everyone!!! :)
