• Still Working

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Day three with nothing of interest to share. Seriously I spent all day yesterday, save for time spent schooling, on those demi gloves. I even managed to mess up once or twice and had to cut out bits and start again. Im very nearly finished now, but I still have more embroidery to do. The design is simple, but Im using ...

  Im afraid we are now at day two without anything interesting to show you. At least today starts without me being nervous. In fact yesterdays incident resolved so pleasantly that I fear I really rather overreacted with stress. Of course if youve been following me for a long time you might remember that things have gone ...

• Sorry About The Rant

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Im running a bit late this morning because Im a horrible, selfish person. Okay, perhaps Im being a bit too hard on myself. I felt the need to send a please dont sell things made with my patterns message again. I hate doing it and so I write, delete, write again, ponder, realize that I need to be firm or Ill regret ...

  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Another tired morning. I have no idea what could possibly be making me more tired than usual, so Ill blame the odd weather. I did manage to get done all that I wanted to yesterday. In fact I managed to go all the way through to the back up plans. I finished all the pieces that I needed to tat up a little after lunch ...

• Weekend Recap

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Im actually having a little trouble getting focused this morning. Ive had yet another odd, meandering weekend where absolutely no tatting got done. On Friday I was determined to complete my crochet project and I did.It fits nicely, so I went digging through my yarn stash to see if I had anymore suitable yarn and I ...

• Spinning Wheels Glass Mat, Part 2

  
  Bridge City Tatting — Authority: 102
  Im finally getting this posted. While Im slowly getting used to my new work schedule, its still throwing off my life. The main change is that I cant find the time for tatting and other creative stuff. I used to do that in the evening, relaxing after supper. Since Im off during the mornings and early afternoons, theres ...

• Work To Do

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  The stars must have aligned because while I was doing schooling yesterday morning I got a message asking for a necklace in a custom length. It was just what I needed, something that actually needed to get done. After schooling I put my head down and got to work. Normally this necklace takes at least a full day to ...

• More Motifs

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  I was not granted any new tasks yesterday, so once schooling and the morning walk were out of the way, it was a whole lot of nothing around here. Okay, thats not entirely true. There was laundry and dishes and after staring at the motif from yesterday for a while, I tried a few more iterations of it. A few were tossed ...

• Another Classic Doily Version

  
  — Authority:
  This is my Classic Doily done again in brown and ivory (my husbands favourite...and we have to keep the men sweet dont we?). The last time I did it in these colours I simply did all rings ivory and all chains brown, but this time I wanted to do blocks of colour.   The doily could be finished at this point and, done ...

• Mini Motif

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  With nothing set in stone to do yesterday, I admit I started with reading. One story later I remembered that I had started a pair of ankle corsets for extra stock and had never gotten back to them, so that was my next task. They were almost complete when I got to them, so it wasnt long before I was again reading. I ...

• The Injury

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  I managed to acquire myself a nice injury yesterday morning. Now, for most people this wouldnt have been a big deal at all, in fact it is the epitome of minor. During schooling I was pulling a worksheet out of the childs math book when I received a nasty, bleeding paper cut right across the cuticle of my left index ...

• Listed

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Im just not feeling very productive lately. I mean I got schooling done, then we went on a walk, mostly to get the kids away from the computers for a while. After that I worked on laundry and getting pictures done for all the new pieces. I got them listed, I sat down and then I proceeded to do next to nothing. I mean ...

• Blog Exercises: The Search for Like Minds

  
  — Authority:
  I tat. My 95 year old grandmother-in-law taught me almost 20 years ago. Tatting is 17th century lace making based upon island and coastal women looking for something to do besides fixing fishing nets for the men of the village. They got creative with their netting shuttles to make fine lace doilies, scarfs, edging, ...

• Two Ways

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Well I got part of what I intended to do yesterday done, but not everything, by a long shot. Schooling was better, but I had mistakenly believed that exercise was a good idea on Monday and I suffered for it yesterday. I mean we get out and go on walks quite frequently, but its been some time before I did anything ...

• New Motif

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Well, schooling didnt go too bad yesterday, at least not because the kids didnt want to do it. No, our problem was that the online school went down just as I was finishing up with the youngest kids classes and starting the second half with the older one. Luckily she had three chapters of a novel she needed to read so ...

• Break Is Over

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  I had a pretty productive weekend. My etsy anniversary sale started out quite slowly. In fact it was pretty much dead around here most of Friday. This allowed me to get the flourish pendant and earrings listed and I made up a new bracelet in a completely different pattern. Its another vintage pattern that I mucked ...

• 7th Etsyversary

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  Yesterday did not really go my way at all. In fact I completely forgot that I wanted to look at my thread inventory. I did look at what I should remake and then proceeded to do none of it. There wasnt much really, except some masks that have remained unmade for quite some time. So then I decided to go ahead and play ...

• Color

  
  Needle Tatting and other Nonsense — Authority: 134
  I didnt get to play with my new little flourish at all yesterday, but thats okay. I didnt get to play because I got a nice little custom order in the afternoon. So I stopped my remaking marathon to make up a few bracelets in custom colors and lengths. I actually had three to do, but I took the photo at two because I ...
