Mini Flakes


Mini Flakes

    This pattern was from Jon Yusoff's, "Tatting with Rings".  The stitch count is off, since I used a 1" (26 mm) ring instead of a 23 mm ring.  The thread was size 20.

Looming with Cheryl

Looming with Cheryl

     Love Cheryl's site.  Lots of characters.  This is Angelina ballerina.  One of her many patterns.  Of course the white bands had to glow.



     The beautiful musical box, in the background, was given to me by my aunt, before I left Iowa.

Copper Cameo

Copper Cameo

     My sister wanted a necklace to match the hematite earrings I Tatsmithed for her last year.  The cameo was in a baggie, full of custom jewelry, found at a yard sale.  This has special meaning for the both of us.  We stopped by this yard sale, before going to see my dad in the hospital.
