Tatting promises...


I promised to post a picture of my bookmarks with the book, threads, and shuttles. It's kind of hard to see the detail, so I took close-up pictures too.


Purple Lime Tie Dye from LadyShuttleMaker, Clover tatting shuttle


Golden Glow from Yarnplayer, Peter Cua buffalo horn shuttle


Tie Dye Blue from LadyShuttlemaker, ceramic shuttle from LadyShuttlemaker (I think this is my favorite ceramic tatting shuttle!)


Jimi Hendrix from LadyShuttleMaker, ceramic shuttle from LadyShuttleMaker (Note the Clover shuttle already wound and ready for another bookmark!)

P.S. - I'm counting these bookmarks as my personal challenge no. 4!

Roses


Dave brought home this beautiful bouquet of roses last night. I love roses! I got to thinking about Sherry Pence's offer to blend colors and name them to order. Hmmm... white, yellow, pale peach, deep peach, pale pink, deep pink. red, deep green... too many colors? What name would work for this blend of colors? Roses won't do... I already have Marilee's Roses (absolutely gorgeous!), and my idea for a color blend can't compete. Any ideas?

Update: My mom suggests Petals. Why didn't I think of that?
