I thought about knitting today, but I didn't. I thought about sewing today, but I didn't. I thought about crocheting today, but I didn't. I stuck to tatting!
First, I went to my cart that's filled with thread (yes, I do have a cart filled with thread), and grabbed the first bright color that caught my eye. This is size 20 Lizbeth #130, Island Breeze. This sure is a fun color!
Tollway Tatters met on Zoom today! Sue was kind enough to get it set up for us, and we met for a little over three hours. It was so nice to spend time with tatting friends!
I worked on round 2 of Renulek's 2021 Spring Doily. I think I could have accomplished a lot more, but I accidentally tatted one motif too many. It takes a long time to untat one of those motifs!
Since we all had such a good time today, we've decided to try and meet the last Saturday of each month at 9 a.m. central time. It may be a while before we can get together physically, and meeting by Zoom is a pretty good alternative. If you'd like to join us, just visit the Tollway Tatters page on Facebook. Sue will post the link for the Zoom meeting a day or two before we meet. Even if you can just drop by to say hi, we'd love to have you join us!
I'm not with button ornaments or ice drops, but I am starting something new. Have you started? Do you know what it is? This is round 1 of Renulek's 2021 Spring Doily, available on her blog and in her Etsy shop. I chose to purchase the pattern so that I can work on it at my own speed. I get a bit anxious when I can't keep up the pace of following the tat-along. Purchasing the pattern makes me feel much more relaxed!
My Granny Rectangle afghan is growing! I can't believe how quickly it's working up.
I was sorting through my tatting bag and found that I had a donut that I hadn't blocked and posted. I think this is the last of this pink thread. I lost the tag, but I think it's Lizbeth Pink Parade. I guess it's time to choose another color!
