I didn't get much done today, but I did finish Motif #1 from DMC Festive Tatting. I love my new shuttle from Lorraine Kolasa. I feel very elegant tatting with a silver shuttle!
For those of you who have shown interest in my bookmark sleeves, Lisa Adams is now carrying them in packs of 10 at Tatting Corner! I know that many of you are not interested in purchasing 50 or 100 sleeves as I did, but a pack of 10 seems like a good starting place. Lisa asked to use one of my photos for her web site, so I am now famous... at least if you visit Tatting Corner!
Not only is your (bookmark) photo up on her site, she even mentioned your name. :D Definitely famous!

Fun stuff!
DeleteForgot to mention - I've had that book for years and rarely opened it. Your motif looks so good, it makes me want to dig out the book and tat from it for a while. Beautiful tatting!

I think I didn't tat from it because I really wanted to tat snowflakes. For me, a snowflake has to have six points!
DeleteLove that motif!!! :) You did a wonderful job on it!!
ReplyDeleteSo...are you famous, or just the bookmark sleeve??? Just teasing!! ;)
Haha! Definitely the bookmark sleeve! ;-)
DeleteThat ornament is gorgeous and many times I see something so stunning it comes from that simple book. It's not that many pages or patterns but somehow I overlook that book. Also I always feel the tatted ornaments look better than the book pictures.
ReplyDeleteI agree! So many times the pictures just don't do the pattern justice.
DeleteSo elegant with the little rings around the edge! Sounds a good idea to make the sleeves available in smaller quantities.
ReplyDeleteI know that many people don't go overboard buying supplies as I do. Ten seems a much more do-able number than 50!
DeleteSuch a beautiful motif !!! And good news about the sleeve and your fame 😍🌹💗
ReplyDeleteHaha! I showed Dave the description of the sleeves, and he just smiled.
DeleteI’ve had that book since it was first available and have made many of the Snowflakes but I have never tried number one because I don’t like it. Until now yours is absolutely gorgeous! As soon as I finish the one I’m working on I’m going to make that one! Thank you for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletePS it’s so fun to say that I have tatted with the famous Diane!
Haha! ...and I've tatted with the famous Michelle!
DeleteBeautiful motif
