tatted cards

 

 

more flower cards

 

This is my own little imagining. Bleeding hearts done with dimpled hearts. 

Bird, bunny,llama, swans and a cross

 I'm having lots of fun. The cross originally came from Workbasket April, 1955. And since, been redesigned by a couple of other tatters. I made a mistake and managed to get 5 rings in the top.

The bird and bunny are from Frivolite con Sabor. And Jane Eborall designed the llama and swans.

I tried to make the swans look like mom and baby signet. The white thread is #20 and the grey is #40. But they're not so very different size wise. 

 

Art classes have started again. These are both water colors. 

Sparkley Snowmen

 

It's been a long time since I added anything to my blog. But I was so happy with the way these snowmen turned out. The pattern is a kit from Tatsy. It wouldn't be that hard to figure out. My mistake was that I didn't make an even number of rings. But that's our little secret. 

I finally found some sparkle paint that even shows up on a picture. It can be found in the arts and crafts section of Walmart. It's the Folkart brand. It's the clear hologram glitter paint. 

I have some beads that came with some that were broken in half. They made good eyes. And I imagine everyone has a button can. 

I think I'll make some more. 

Christmas Baubles by Patty Duff

 

These Christmas Baubles were designed by Patty Duff. I had fun making them. 

Another blizzard

 

Got some more snowflakes made. All but one of these are from Robin Perfetti's book 4 dozen snowflakes. The one in the top right hand is from Tatted Snowflakes by Jennifer Williams.

 Snow Flakes by Jennifer Williams

These are fun to make. They are from the book 20 tatted snowflakes by Jennifer Williams. I like this book. It has good written instructions and good diagrams as well.
