Save the date!

Tollway Tatters will be meeting on Saturday, March 18. If you're in the Chicago area, we would love to have you join us! We meet at the Hinsdale Oasis on 294 at 10 a.m. We always have a lot of fun!


Now that I'm working on length, I will post pictures of my sister-in-law's runner as I finish a row of three motifs... if I remember! The pattern is Eightsome Reel from A Pattern Book of Tatting by Mary Konior. the thread is size 20 Lizbeth #693, Linen Med.


I really didn't need any more gems for tatting Ice Drops, but when I searched 20 mm coins on Etsy, I saw these beautiful pieces and just had to have them!


I also found these. Just think of the possibilities!


I tatted one Ice Drop ornament today.


I also tatted my first Ice Drop pin.


 A little bar pin stitched to the back, and I'm all set for St. Patrick's Day!

    1. We would love to have you join us, Julie! We usually stay until 3 or 4. We did leave at 1:30 one time because of snow, but it's supposed to be sunny and in the upper 40s on Saturday.
