Today was a typical day after the last performance school day... lots of tired, but happy students! Dave and I have been busy doing our usual cleanup... washing tablecloths, coffee pots, and coffee cups. We must have a good routine down, because we're almost finished cleaning and putting away. It's a good feeling!
Today was a fabulous mail day! First, I received my newest shuttle from
Grizzly Mountain Arts. I do love lighthouses, and I was thrilled to be able to purchase this one.
I also received several new shuttles from Emiko Suenaga of
PaintatPlus. Emiko is celebrating two years of having an Etsy shop. There were several shuttles that I wanted, so I waited until I had enough set aside to purchase all I wanted at once. It was well worth the wait!

I also couldn't resist this beautiful blue butterfly shuttle!
Emiko also sent along some beautiful resin disks with flowers from her own garden. I am thrilled to have these, and when they become Ice Drops, they will be ones I treasure for years to come! Thank you, Emiko!
Lily's afghan is growing quickly! I have high hopes for finishing it within the next week. Unfortunately, that will mean less tatting time. It can't be helped. Christmas will be here in no time, and I have two more to go after this one!
Fabulous shuttles!!! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful floral disks!! :)
Love that afghan!! :)
Thanks, Sue!
DeleteWho knew there were so many possibilities for decorating shuttles? Not to mention ice drops, those flowery ones are going to be gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to make sure I choose the right thread!
DeleteBeautiful shuttles Diane. I'm sure that you must have well over a thousand now! I hope you have used every single one.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful shuttles! I’m jealous - I love them all, but that forget-me-not one is very special. Lucky you!
