20/25 and second Round Robin

Here be Jane's Sleeping cat, in Rubi thread. I wanted to try and make a ginger tom, not quit but never mind. 74,000 split rings . Enjoyed making it.

There is a comment on my blog from
barb michelen. If you are a Tatter, shame on you, If not bog off and keep your adverts to yourself.

And just in case someone thinks I'm absolutely brilliant. I did't tat this ginger tom!!!!!

16/17 and 18

16

Started on an edging but messed it up so many times I ran out of thread. Looks like I will have to visit Mother in law and Sister in law. They are only five minutes from Roseground.
Finca perle size 16, strange variagation the white shows up every few feet but omly for a few inches.

17

I hope this is not classed as cheating!! Its No 1 revisited once again Finca perle 16. Can anyone tell me how to get the last chain interwoven with the other two. might look a bit Celtic that way.

18

BJ strikes again!! She sent me some King Tut Quilting thread. By heck that is so fine. So I doubled it up for this Pentagram? Enjoyed working with it. I break threads a lot because I play a guitar and have long nails on my right hand and particularly strong ones on my thumbs.

No 15/25 and my tatting kit

Above is my tattiong kit. goes wherever I go. Glasses case, silent tatter, aero shuttle, Scissors, dowell for winding on to the silent, and the tangled mess of whatever i'm working on at the moment. There's normally a 0.6mm crochet hook as well but I think it's down the back of the sofa at the moment!!




My first Heart, which on looking at it in a photo seems a bit unbalanced may do again.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

12/25

The original intention was to try to do Roger Freedmans Babies Breath. Should have read the destructions first!! I haven't got a clue what Mignonette Tatting is, and I can't Needle tat either!! So after round two I did me own thing Man. The original was in a variagated pink, and called babies breath. I didn't have any so used this, Decided on second thoughts not to call it frogs breath, on the grounds thaty if I had used brown it would have to be called dogs breath.

It is the size of a sheet of A4.
