Donna's Tatting blog

I got my set of 6 tatting needles in the mail today. It was funny because the ebay account is in my name but my husband uses it the most for buying magic cards (card game). We get a lot of little packages in the mail with my name on them but they are all for him. This time he ripped open the envelope and was bummed. He said, "needles?" with a frown LOL But I was very happy to see them. They came pretty fast! I can't wait to try them but I am making myself wait a little while. My doctor put me on a pain patch and I'm a little loopy (but not hurting!!! yay!). I'd probably stick myself a bunch and end up with a tangled mess.

I also found my beaded earrings I was working on in pink and white for my sister. I had already finished one and had just started the 2nd one. Then my husband told my kids to clean up one day and I couldn't find them anywhere after that. I found them in the bottom of a tub full of yarn and assorted other stuff that had been stuck in the garage! It took me a good half hour to get them untangled from the other stuff in there. Now I think I'll finish them. My sister sells Mary Kay so she's become very fond of pink. These earrings are from the same pattern as the green/white pair I made that is in my album only those were made with size 10 royale crochet cotton (and were horrendously long) and these are made with size 20 Lizabeth.
