This is the first round of Tatting Fools challenge.Watch this spare for round 2 and 3.

Daisies and clover doily

Daisies and Clover doily by Emma Crew (2001). I used Lizbeth 40 Falling leaves and Christmas. Have enjoyed tatting these 4 rounds.It measure 4 1/2".

Well another baby quilt done. Love making up my own designs. Don't like all the hand sewing. This is for a friend at work. Bought the material last Friday so I've busy.

This is Jane Eboall's Christmas tree decoration. Lizbeth20 unnamed test thread. Hanging on my garden Christmas tree in the middle of a sunny July day. Love making it.Split chain length with lots of beads.

Ear ring's

Yesterday I found a picture on Cu drag de la Maria's blog of a pair of ear ring's. I did not know what to take to Charnwood tat afternoon. So this is my take of said ear rings.

Well Jane Eborall posted this pattern this am . Well I'm sitting here recovering so just had to have a go. Took approx 1 hour. Used Lizbeth 20 Island Breeze.

Another U.F.O finished.Started these last year. Pattern is Jon's Quantiesque Snowflake. Lizbeth 40. Blue Ice on Lime egg, Rainbow Taffy on Teal egg and Sea Island on Lilac egg.

This a update on yesterdays post. I used size 20 and can see the Catherine wheel joins.               Bonnie I got Jane's sheet on Catherine wheel join. It was easy to follow as it's in colour I'm sure you would manage to tat this pattern.

Minuet

Bought this Pdf pattern by Joelle Paulson. Used lizbeth 40. Have learnt how to do Catherine wheel joins. Need to practice so doing it again but in size 20, will be able to see stitches better. I'm enjoying all the tatting I'm doing while recovering surgery.

Needs blocking but this is what I did tonight. I found a picture of a cross by Julie Patterson, NO pattern. I have change it and added to it. Not a bad out come.

Marja finished

 Well I got the last round finished last night. I used basak50.It measures 6 1/4 inches square. The photo above is not blocked.

Now it's blocked and you can see why sometimes you need to do this.
Marja was designed by Jon while his wife was dying from Lung Cancer aged only 52.

One more round to go, may have it done by bedtime today. NO rain so far bit cloudy at times but the sun is out. May get on swing in garden.
Thing's are now getting back to ?normal on the recovery side. No longer black and blue.
Hope you all have a good day.    

MARJA

This is the start of a square doily I'm working on at present.I found it on bella on line site, it's by wanadoo/ tatslife. May get it done soon as its raining cats and dogs here in the midlands so can't go out.
