July Tatting

Exactly 1 month ago I started this blog after a PTG Meeting. This month I wrote down what I have tatted and I am truely amazed for a turtle like me. I think I have tatted more in this month that I have in any year of my life.....that is with keeping the 3 doodlebugs!

1 Victorian bookmark - Marilynn Brockley

I was test tatting the thread that Hegla had given us at the meeting and I need more bookmarks to give away.

2. Eternal Rose Bracelet - Marilynn Brockley pattern for the rose and her hand died thread given to me by Marie Smith

3. Eternal Rose Earrings MB from left over thread on shuttles.

4. Started a necklace Eternal Rose - MB

5. Split Ring Bracelet for Emma - Juliet Herring's pattern
