Tatting again! YaY!!!!!!

Hello fellow bloggers and readers :)

I'm back into tatting again after taking a bit of a break.(Too long of a break at that!)
I've started working on bookmarks. They can be so quick and make such nice gifts or sale items (that is with permission from designers :) of course).

Here is what I have been working on. The first two are Gina Butler's "Basic Ring-Chain Cross Bookmark" which pattern can be found here:  I used Lizbeth Size 40 thread. The first one is done up in colorway "Countryside" and the second one is done up in colorway "Purple Splendor". I just LOVE using these threads!!!

This third bookmark is found here on Jane's blog. This was sooo much fun making. I could sure tell it had been while since I had any real tatting. I had to re-do this EASY book about 3 times :( I kept messing up, dumb mistakes grrrrrr. I also used Lizbeth size 40 on this one, the colorway is "Falling Leaves" I actually made it before I did the two above Cross bookmarks. 


Again as always,,,Thank you for your wonderful comments and input. Always look forward to hearing from readers, Don't be shy :)

Blessings and have a HAPPY NEW YEAR Everyone!

Thank you very much Judy! I hear you all over east are getting hit pretty hard this year. Keep warm, safe and dry.

I do LOVE these lizbeth threads for sure. I'm hoping to be able to squeeze out a little to order me a new color or two. :)

Hugs, Connie
