My friend Jill tried very hard to win my purple tree at the high school drama club performance in March. She did not win, and I promised her I would make another purple tree.
I think this one is so much prettier than the first one. This one's for Jill!
I started round 17 of Renulek's Spring Doily 2025 yesterday. This round is in size 20 Lizbeth #710 Bright Blue Lt, a nice soft color. I really have no idea how long it took to finish the first pattern repeat. It may take me longer than a week to tat this round, but sometimes I get motivated to work for a long time. I guess we'll see how it goes!
It's taken me longer than expected, but today I finished round 16 of Renulek's Spring Doily 2025. I think it's absolutely gorgeous!
I've done a little tatting here and there since my last post, but not much. My heart hasn't been in it.
My nephew Andrew passed away last Thursday, April 24. He and his brother Erich were each three months older than my younger daughters, Joanne and Carol. My sister's boys and my girls were very close growing up. Our sorrow is as deep as our love for Andrew. Rest in peace, dear nephew.
I just finished round 15 of Renulek's Spring Doily 2025. Round 16 will join the feathery looking elements so that they stay in place nicely. I used size 20 Lizbeth #187 Green Ice for this round.
I'm eager to get started on round 16, but we've had a death in the family, so I'm not sure how much time I'll have for tatting over the course of the next week.
I tatted two pattern repeats today, which means I only have two left to finish round 15 of Renulek's Spring Doily 2025. I have my colors chosen for the last three rounds. Dave asked me how long it will take to finish. I really don't know, but I'm hoping to finish before school gets out. I think I can do it!
I was able to tat another two pattern repeats on Renulek's Spring Doily 2025, which means I am halfway through the round. I feel like I'm on a roll!
