Love Free Patterns!


Don't you?! I found this one here. I wanted to try it out first, so I used a thread that isn't my favorite, a dusty rose. The beads are just clear seed beads, except for the bicone at the bottom. It is the palest of pinks. It turned out pretty well, if I do say so myself. Now I am off to try it with more colorful threads and beads. Toodles.

Christmas Tree Earrings

I didn't post the source of the white Christmas tree earrings because I was sure I had done it before. But after spending more time than I care to count looking through my old posts, I realize why it didn't seem to be there and I couldn't find it at first. I had used the pattern as a 2d image and made it into a bookmark for a round robin. The pattern is Linda S. Davies'. Can be found here. Check out her blog. She has some amazing things. Have Fun!

Not much new



Working on a Christmas ornament, so no pictures yet. Made myself a pair of the earrings I sent to my sisters. And contemplating making another pair of the Christmas trees. These have already been promised to someone.

Sick, Sick, Sick


Me, that is. Wanting to tat and afraid my brain functions are too cloudy to keep a correct count. Cold here today, got a chili in the crock pot for family before retiring to bed again. Going through tatting withdrawals, if there is such a thing. Hopefully by tomorrow I will be able to get to a post office to mail three or four tatted things off to folks.

Totally off subject: This is my current background on my computer. It was a photo that my dad took of our driveway in Alaska years ago. My mom's uncle painted it and it now hangs in our house.
Pretty soon I am going to have to change it back to the Florida Keys photo when it gets really cold. Have a nice day/night, ya'll.
