"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!!! :)

Having Trouble!!

 I don't know what is going on, but for some reason I cannot access my reading list.  I click on it and it gets a "hazy" look over the page and freezes.  It's been happening for a couple of days now.  So, if you are looking for my comments on your blogs, I am sorry, but I can't get to them.  I will try later and see if I can access them on my hubby's laptop.  ;)

New Suncatcher color

I just finished this suncatcher for a 
person who wanted something other 
than a rainbow.
I thought a watermelon suncatcher 
would be nice, so here it is ready to 
go tomorrow.
It's another 8 inch suncatcher.  I used 
size 40 Lizbeth Juicy Watermelon, 
Christmas Red and Christmas Green Mix 
threads with size 12/0 clear glass seed 
beads and size 11/0 red, green, and 
black(for the "seeds") seed beads.
 I am working on another Rainbow in
the clouds suncatcher.  And hoping to
work on a new idea.

Have a wonderful weekend and lots
of tatting!!!  :)

3- 8 inch Suncatchers

I had 2-  8 inch suncatchers in my Etsy shop and 
they sold out right away, so I have spent the last 2 
weeks + tatting to replace them.  
Here is the Rainbow Suncatcher.
Here is the Rainbow in the Clouds Suncatcher.
Below is a slight variation of the 
Rainbow Suncatcher(a slight difference 
in the beads).
I am currently working on a requested 
suncatcher of a different color combo.
Hope you are all getting some tatting 
done!! :)

A month gone by

I was told that I hadn't posted in awhile and some were 
beginning to wonder if I was still here.  Yes, I am here!
It has been a crazy month.  Things starting to open up 
here again, hubby getting back to work(3 weeks now), 
daughter getting her Etsy shop up: 
and keeping up with purchases from my Etsy shop, 
and everyday life.
I am tatting a Rainbow suncatcher and a
Rainbow in the Clouds suncatcher, and they are 
almost done. And, I have an order for one in a 
different color combination so keep an eye out.
And, I had a pair of rainbow earrings in my Etsy 
shop which sold and someone said they wanted a 
pair, so I got busy and tatted some.  The bottom 
pair were tatted first, but I used different blue beads 
than the original, so I had to tat the original, and the 
person liked the darker blue better, so, those went 
and the others are in my shop.  ;)
We had to be up at 4am this morning so...I have 
sat watching movies and tatting, and now it's on 
to everyday "work".  ;)
Have a blessed day and weekend, and get some 
tatting in!! :)

Rainbow in the Clouds suncatcher

I had an idea and decided to tat it and 
see.  I thought white with rainbow beads 
would look great and it does, so I call it 
Rainbow in the Clouds-white clouds  with 
a rainbow of beads.  ;)
Again, it's Elaine P. Gan's Cathedral Doily-
the first 13 rows of her doily, and it's tatted 
in size 40 Lizbeth Snow White with seed 
beads.
I have a regular Rainbow suncatcher in 
progress and thousands of things swirling 
in my head while several project sitting 
unfinished.....some day, some time.  ;)
Hope you are having a great week!!
Getting some tatting time in!  :)
