Okay, so I've been MIA on this blog...

With the holidays and other things going on, I haven't had much time to post anything! So sorry...Although, I must say that I don't know if anyone even LOOKS at this but me! LOL

I have been a busy tatter...I am over 3/4 finished with one doily..I put it on hold while I worked on the hearts at the bottom of this post.

I finished one doily but there was more to the pattern that I just didn't do! I couldn't figure it out...I may at some point go back and try again, but for now, it looks great to me!! The pattern is from Tatting with Anne Orr. It's on page 10--the Round Doily Set. It's the small doily..it measures approx. 5 3/4 inches when made with size 80 thread. I used DMC tatting thread.

This doily I found for $1.00 at the local flea market. There are some minor condition issues, but overall it looks pretty good. It measures approx 8 1/2 inches across. It looks to be made with a size 30 thread or so. Not really sure.

This is a heart pattern that was in the current Handy Hands catalog. I really like it! It measures about 2 1/4 by 2 inches when made with size 30 thread. I made 36 of them for an upcoming retreat...except they were with size 80 thread. I wanted something small that could be tucked in a Bible or a purse or something. I had fun making them--although they took me longer than I thought that they would.
