Poles
No, this pair of twins are not late for the migration. They are a type of Poles Dragons, they migrate from the south to north pole. This type of dragon can be recognized by their blue eyes. The blue eyes are said to see better at night because they have more rods and cones. Rods can see black and white, while the cones can see color.
These are called Tree Moss Dragons, due to their greenish color.
The dragons were tatted with 2 strands of rayon sewing thread.
This pattern can be found on Craftree, by Michelle Bottosff.
Lapis
A regular customer asked for a pair of lapis earrings. I was going to see her the next day, so it was a kinda a rush order. I thought I had a pair made up but realized I sold them last year. I just happened to have 9 lapis beads in my stash. Here is what I came up, quickly. The tatting was done with 2 strands of silver, sewing thread. Unfortunately, she love them...I liked them so much, I thought about keeping them.
My New Dress
One of the vendors, at a local craft show, makes crochet,baby dresses. The print is an old pineapple print...my favorite. I have a rattie doll that has a red dress and pink shoes. The shoes don't match the dress, so she needed a new dress. (The rattie doll was a present from my niece and sister. My niece thought the rattie needed shoes for her dress.) The dress was a 0 to 6 months and it looks great on the rattie.
Look at that smile on her face. She was so excited to get her new dress.
She is sitting in the upstairs, guest bedroom of our new house.
Old Ruby
This pendant was made from an old pin. The tatting was done with pearl cotton #12.
For sale on West Pine Creations.
Last One
The last pendant for the "Keys to My Heart," collection. Made with pearl cotton #12. I'm keeping this one.
Needles
I had to dig out my tatting needles to complete this heart. I wanted to incorporate the curves of the heart, into my tatting. I needed my needles to finish the last round of the Celtic chains.
