Promise Me round 2

Hello again!  I have started my second Promise Me.  My plan right now to get this finished without losing my mind to bordom is to tell myself that every time I finish a line on this one I will do another 12 Days day.  I am not much for doing the same thing over more than once.  I also can't believe what a difference it is going from 40ct to 32ct!  32ct seems so huge now.   

I also finished another tatted bookmark.  I don't know if you all will remember the thread I dyed but this is it!  I am pretty pleased with the colors and can't wait to try some more combos.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stitching!

This is going to kill me...

Hiya!!  I used to work with a girl who always greeted me with Hiya :)

This tatted doily is going to do me in!!  It absolutely kills my hand.  Carpal-tunnel or something I think is causing me the pain so I can only do a little bit then take a break until my hand wakes back up and stops throbbing.  No pain no gain they say, but I think that is better suited to working out and not tatting.  :)

This still needs to be starched so it lays nicer.  It will help all the parts go where they are supposed to and not twist up anymore.  

I am learning this pattern from youtube and if anyone wants to go check the videos out here they are:

Part 3 took me the better part of the day.  It also didn't help that I had half of it done before I realized I was joining the wrong picots together and had to cut all that part off. :(  

And since it took me all day and I had to go donate blood tonight, which I wasn't able to do because my iron was too low, I didn't get one stitch in on Hannah Lynn!  It isn't very often that I don't at least cross one stitch.  Oh well tomorrow is a new day :)

 Happy whatever you are doing today :)xx
