Feelin' blue

I started off the day feeling blue...


Caribbean blue! I kind of like the pink glass gem, and the pink ribbon seemed to be the perfect touch.


I did some band weaving on my new mini loom. I made a mistake on the first pattern repeat, but I decided to let it be and keep going. So far my tension is good, so maybe I'm finally catching on!


I was inspired to pull my Korean tatting book, Tatting lace with your life, off the shelf when I read Jeff's post this morning. I do like this book, and I haven't done anything from it in a while.


So today I started the Hanging Garden doily. This is the first round, and it's the most complicated round. It won't be a huge doily. It's only four rounds, and the other three rounds are not as deep. Right now, this piece is about 3 1/4" across. I'm guessing it will be about 6" when it's finished. We'll see if I'm right!

  3. Beautiful with those threads together, that's a lovely pretty pattern, I don't have that book it's going on my wish list.
