The Workbasket December 1958


As you can see, I managed to fix my mistake and finish the cross. This one is pretty big... 6 1/2" by 4 1/2", not including the ribbon. I used size 20 Lizbeth #621. I think I would like it better tatted in a finer thread. This one is too big to use as a bookmark, but wouldn't it be pretty framed?

Thank you to Beedeebabee and Lelia for finding this issue of The Workbasket and sending them to me. I have such awesome friends!

  2. Yes, it did turn out a little large, but it would look wonderful in a frame. This looks like the pattern I made a few of back in the day. As it comes from Workbasket it probably is. Nice job.
