Recent Tatting

Hi All in Tattingland!!

I joined the Twice Favorite Exchange this summer so I would have an excuse to tat. It is challenging finding time to tat with an active toddler and all. So I tatted this tumbler from A Tatter's Workbook for my partner. I sure hope she enjoys it!! It was made with size 20 thread and I truly enjoyed doing this project!! I also sent some thread samples to my partner too, along with this tumbler.

Wonk out!

My Valentine

Here is my little Valentine... he loves chocolate, now doesn't he??!!

I can't believe he has grown so fast...the time flies..

2011 Tatting

Hello All in Tatting Blog land~

Here is my recent tatting for the 2011 year!! It was nice to do some tatting tonight... it has been too long since I picked up a shuttle :(

These hearts are Ruth Perry's Fringe Heart pattern made for the renewal of my Fringe Tatting membership. These hearts will be going up North to visit someone else!! The one heart is made with size 20 Handy Hands Flora thread and the other is made with Altin Basak size 50 red variegated thread.

Life is busy here... Adam is a 1 1/2 years old now and I am within 3 months of finishing a Master's Degree in Nursing... yeah! Otherwise we are well and not enjoying all the snow that is here! I sure hope Spring is on the horizon.

Take care and Happy Tatting to all~

Spring 2010 Tatting...

Hi All,

Wow, it has been a while since I posted! I have completed my Spring 2010 tatting exchange item hosted by the Fringe Element Tatters. It seems it is hard to tat with a little one and all the other responsibilities in my life now. I guess my interests have changed and the demands have increased! The picture at the left shows the butterfly I made. It is my own design and not as "perfect" as I would like, however it is a learning process with designing, right? I attached it to a card and sent it off to Australia! Maybe someday I will have more time to tat...

BTW.. my little one is doing well and it is such a pleasure to watch him grow!! I am so blessed!

Recent tatting

Hi All in Tattingland~

Here is my most recent tatting... a pair of earrings for my boss. She is leaving the hospital and I wanted to send her with something special. The pattern is the same as the earrings I made for a colleage that was leaving the ICU... see earlier post.

Well gotta go... Adam needs Mommy's attention.

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!

Hello All,

Well here we are into a New Year... can't believe it. I have not been doing much tatting as taking care of Adam is the priority. I just love caring for and raising him...he is such a sweet boy!! I will upload some Holiday pictures of him and one day I will be back to tatting and can post about that...





This is Adam's first Christmas picture with Mommy...I just love this picture...he is so serious and being so still!! Not at all like Adam...














Adam's first photo with Daddy for Christmas.... don't my boys look good??!!! Adam is wearing crochet booties his Great-Gram made... however he didn't like them on his feet.. by lunch time they were off!














Well this is all for now... take care, enjoy the days, and do some tatting for me!!!!!!
