Beginning at the left top & bottom, I made lots of these flower earrings designed by Elizabeth Zipay. The gold necklace is done in Oren Bayan metalic thread with hundreds of beads. The pattern is in the Japanese book, Tatting Lace. The wheat & red necklace (Lizbeth thread in 20) is a design again by Elizabeth Zipay. The green earrings are by Marilee Rockley. The blue & white and purple & black necklaces are designed by Jaskina Marantys. I have many more sets of earrings completed. I'll be ready.<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

I mailed off 6 of these shamrocks, I have these 6 plus 4 more done and ready to give to friends and family. The pattern is by Betsy Evans. I also did some increasing all the stitches to 2 between picots. It's a little larger and the ends are a little more defined. I put little pins on the back.Terryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09733371500684595718noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33561333.post-16220285183217555062012-02-28T18:05:00.003-08:002012-02-28T18:10:28.706-08:00Happy St. Paddy's dayTerryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09733371500684595718noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33561333.post-74140049663683264812011-12-24T08:20:00.001-08:002011-12-24T08:23:55.669-08:00Christmas angels, 2011<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuS-_R-iP5gyqzqDEn4aYVDIuIbWE8TiXtfQVti7US6jrO2uskhAgOh5RZTUbfviZpjrxteqaxsyYCP1a0GsOb91pjI_u428ZFWzzLpHoxaoNx0rNKtvUY_ck07F77X1wi2XtX7A/s1600/Angels.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuS-_R-iP5gyqzqDEn4aYVDIuIbWE8TiXtfQVti7US6jrO2uskhAgOh5RZTUbfviZpjrxteqaxsyYCP1a0GsOb91pjI_u428ZFWzzLpHoxaoNx0rNKtvUY_ck07F77X1wi2XtX7A/s400/Angels.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689730773484128626" /></a>17 of the 23 tiny (abt. 2 3/4 inch) angels I made for family & friends for Christmas.

I plan to close out my 2nd, actually unpublished book, Thirteen Bell Patterns, subtitled, "Old patterns, New patterns, Some you have, Some you don't, Some you just want all in one book" Above are some samples of the patterns.<br />I am selling the book along with 4 glass bells for $18.00 including shipping anywhere in the USA. Most of the patterns are charted but all are fully discribed. Most are fairly easy but a few are more challenging. The first one above is in the more challenging catagory but the other 2 are easy.

I was invited to display my tatting at our local Mistlin Art Gallery. I did up some new pieces and entered some old ones. <div>The newest are the 2 necklaces, the hair bun cover, the guest towel done in blues, the jabot (ladies tie) from a 1896 pattern (just above the fan). The tablecloth is the oldest. It has 40 eight inch medallions and took me 2 years to complete but it won a blue at the CA State Fair. </div>Terryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09733371500684595718noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33561333.post-10985218790126588222010-11-03T18:32:00.000-07:002010-11-03T18:39:09.121-07:00Munoz snowflake<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT_gHiCDgVLK_y8AiygPvZA-BVdhU83DYD4E-AnNFBdwMlJc576Ow5ABwwirqtHRmeLpyIRa89FD1ONOn_Aj0-RLNCZWFDZWcmbVlxI8xz2Zmz5u0kIQua1tStL_qX6Nwy0cG1UA/s1600/munoz4.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 129px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT_gHiCDgVLK_y8AiygPvZA-BVdhU83DYD4E-AnNFBdwMlJc576Ow5ABwwirqtHRmeLpyIRa89FD1ONOn_Aj0-RLNCZWFDZWcmbVlxI8xz2Zmz5u0kIQua1tStL_qX6Nwy0cG1UA/s200/munoz4.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535502060541321682" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw0mQyG1THEZ_hWfYqo4cHxtlx83vSZVXeYceH-Mttuj_lwIcfdUIJQLcL_H--DTUl01Gzu5-1k7YHi13T8yvpAXQ2QFBq0SH7daKMi7enMKBg7d3dw-s5j3dM9XjvUYhXvAcACg/s1600/6snFla.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 158px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw0mQyG1THEZ_hWfYqo4cHxtlx83vSZVXeYceH-Mttuj_lwIcfdUIJQLcL_H--DTUl01Gzu5-1k7YHi13T8yvpAXQ2QFBq0SH7daKMi7enMKBg7d3dw-s5j3dM9XjvUYhXvAcACg/s200/6snFla.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535501898419226210" /></a>Here is some of the many snowflakes I have done. I started with Denise Munoz's pattern and added Swarovski crystals, changed the last row as she suggests and then did some triple picots as you can see in the picture on the left. I've had so much fun with the colors and figuring out a new last row. A big thanks to Denise for her cute little book on rose snowflakes. I did change the count on the inside rows, I use direct method chains (no flip, downward facing) so the chains stay really neat. My fav method of making smooth, tight chains.Terryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09733371500684595718noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33561333.post-2675751773556387182010-10-06T07:18:00.000-07:002010-10-06T07:23:36.436-07:00Secret Angel Exchange<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHqBDL83f4TVFh9FZZNy9iX_YiC2_FeemjLxeZWTQz-N3q5jXNsUoMhjq8xZ3Czbiy1gmTC_vJan54Co7DS07PLbne_UAyluCgPLJvGLguQA0Ct3asSni0369gya5aZBARFNF-eg/s1600/ExchHallow.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 262px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHqBDL83f4TVFh9FZZNy9iX_YiC2_FeemjLxeZWTQz-N3q5jXNsUoMhjq8xZ3Czbiy1gmTC_vJan54Co7DS07PLbne_UAyluCgPLJvGLguQA0Ct3asSni0369gya5aZBARFNF-eg/s320/ExchHallow.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5524937595922969506" /></a>Wow, did my exchange partner ever go all out.

I worked the edging for a fingertip towel for a friend. I loved the edging. I made some changes in both design and count and created the pink bell.

Some don't have the white "twinkle" in their eye nor the bow around their necks, but they have been fun. I've now completed 10 bears/dogs/mice. I've also been knitting hats for newborns.

It's really small. I switched to size 45 thread (#12 Perle cotton), worked the bookmark then added a top and bottom. The bottom is really level, it just photograped sideways. I'd love to post the pattern but since the main part is Brigette's design, I can't.<div>Amazingly, knowing my love of beads, there isn't one bead in sight. I could change that. I left a picot along the bottom edge of the center part to drape some beads if I find it necessary.

Thanks Riet for your great detective work.

It is based on a jewelry pattern by a Russian designer. I don't have her name so I can't get her permission to post the pattern.<div>I especially like the Swarovski crystal centers with the seed beads all around the circle. It takes about 250 beads, 2 shuttles with split rings and a 3rd thread encapsulation to carry the crystals and the bead between motifs. It's still a fairly easy pattern. There isn't a pattern with the jewelry pictures, that I had to figure out. </div>Terryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09733371500684595718noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33561333.post-4210553150321641202009-03-12T11:46:00.000-07:002009-03-14T06:25:43.947-07:00Easter Frames<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOUzoCWYlTPAGUIU0JZ-fXg9GXG3-UDFu-qJuZC8wVRLNi7rDc2x5eNw5R5A66HCHBshqtYUz0Ehki84nNBVWjLiF1SwQnkJzmzHwkGsQjCUcXfnm_yHhQ1MTvOAozuDSNxE-9pA/s1600-h/EFrame.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312375224687984658" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 130px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOUzoCWYlTPAGUIU0JZ-fXg9GXG3-UDFu-qJuZC8wVRLNi7rDc2x5eNw5R5A66HCHBshqtYUz0Ehki84nNBVWjLiF1SwQnkJzmzHwkGsQjCUcXfnm_yHhQ1MTvOAozuDSNxE-9pA/s200/EFrame.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>After seeing Riet's tatted frames hanging on her little tree, I decided to make these Easter Egg shaped and hang them on my Easter tree. I used Caron Wildflowers in Springtime for the first frame. The 2nd is size 20 with the chains done in the same Caron. Here's my pattern:</div><div>First tail and half of bow. </div><div>Tie a knot between shuttle & ball or 2 shuttles in one color or 2. Chain 18 RW (Reverse work) R27^ (small picot) 5. RW Chain 6 RW<br />Rings 1-29 All rings are the same,(Ring #1) R5+ (LPPR) 3-2-2-3-5. RW Ch 5<br />#2. Ring RW then Ch 5 RW #3 Ring, RW Ch 5 RW #4 Ring, Ch 5 #5. Ring, Ch 5 #6. Ring, Ch 5 #7.

Ring, Ch 4 Now reverse the order until you have 29 rings, end with ch 6 Other half of bow, R5+ (to Ring #29) 27. Join to base of first ring, Tail: Ch 18. Tie a knot at the very edge of the last stitch and cut. </div><div>Super quick and easy and a great way to display my great-grandchildren.
