I am really enjoying tatting Masquerade from the Lizbeth thread pack "Sweet Tarts." I'm pretty sure I have all of these colors in my stash, but I'm not sure I'd have ever put them together.

I tatted another of Tamie Alliss's "Beaded Bloom." I like the multi-colored beads on the outside, and the center bead is a little bit different from the other's I've used. The hole through the center is a little larger, which made it easier to thread the picot through the bead. I think it has an interesting shape.

Dave went to daughter Carol's to work on her tree again this afternoon. It was drizzling here, but clear at Carol's house. I chose to stay home. I get nervous watching my husband with a chain saw!

While Dave was busy working, I sat and watched a movie and tatted an Ice Drop. I didn't write down what I did, so I'll have to see if I can duplicate the pattern. I really like the way it turned out!
