Hello! It is time again for TUSAL. I think I had a pretty good month and the tatting orts really filled my jar up!
I started at the beginning with the tatting again. One of my friends from the stitching guild is also tatting and she gave me the loan of a beginners tatting book and told me to start at the first and follow the lessons and boy am I glad I did. I had the idea of how to tat but I wasn't doing it properly and for that reason my pieces weren't laying very nicely. I am very pleased with how my improved tatting is looking. I am really looking forward to getting some more colors of thread to try out too.
I have also started Refl-egg-tions in my Mo's Sale silks. I absolutely love the colors of the silk but it is super slippery and kind of hard to stitch with, but it looks lovely when it is stitched up. I am really looking forward to having this hanging on my wall next Easter.
Happy Stitching Everyone!!
Your ORTs look great! The tatting is absolutely beautiful and I love the Easter pattern with the silks!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely comment Alison! I am really enjoying tatting and I think the bookmarks would make great Christmas presents along with a book or book store gift card :)
DeleteTatting piece looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mini! It is really fun to do and not hard at all. The hardest part is reading the pattern :)
DeleteNice ort collection. The tatting looks great - love the colours. Eggs are coming along nicely as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bea! I am very happy with my eggs and I can't wait to hang them up next Easter. :)
