Monday, Monday

I had great plans for today... get back in to a routine before school starts in three weeks, clean, meal plan, etc. Somehow, I got sidetracked! Instead of starting on the right foot, I went shopping with daughter Carol. We had a great time, and I was home by 2:00, so I still had time for some tatting and weaving. I guess the cleaning and meal planning will just have to wait!


This is motif No. 7. This was a fun tat, but not one that I'm likely to tat again. It's too loose a pattern for my liking. I'll be skipping No. 8, because it has too much bare thread. So, on to motif No. 9!


I love the way this little bag turned out! I will admit that I felt a strong craving for chocolate while I was working on it. ;-)


I could not get a good picture of this bag. The yarn is silver with a fine wrapping thread thread in sparkly pink, blue, green, and gold. It just shimmers in the light. I might just have to keep this one for myself!

  2. Ah yes, the cleaning will still be there later. Motif 7 would have to be sewn onto something, wouldn't it? The bags are so cute I'd want to keep them all!

  4. Three weeks until you go back to school? 3? Oh my. Time flew by this summer.

  5. Motif #7 might look good stitched down to something (in my case, glued!) but just on it's own wouldn't hang up nice like some motifs do. Your bags look nice. I would have trouble wanting to keep them all :-)
