Well it's been a very long journey for these snowflakes started in July, Star 1 found in Laura Zuiukiewicz's book "Tatting Christmas Decorations", a lovely pattern but very time consuming in three rounds! Size 20 Lizbeth and measured around 4.5 inches, larger than I thought. What with vacation time, health issues and various commitments they were finished yesterday and today starched. Will check tomorrow if this first brush on is good or if they need another coat tomorrow. That's the first batch, onto the next set. Sorry for the board, will have to find something to cover the designs for next time.

Well today at my quilt gathering I started sewing up my 9.5" unfinished I Spy blocks into a child's quilt top. I've yet to add on the red or blue border and that'll be 12 of the 72 blocks used up. Plans for four shadow boxed like slightly larger tops to come from the remaining ones. Then I was also sewing up potato chip blocks and you know I barely made a dent in that novelty fabrics bin, but it closes better now.
Finally they are complete and kinda overwhelming my tiny display tree. Star 1 found in Laura Bziukiewicz's book "Tatting Christmas Decorations", a lovely pattern but very time consuming in three rounds! Size 20 Lizbeth and measured around 4.5 inches, larger than I thought.
