Tatting on the go ...

I prefer my small Art Bin 6971 AB; however,

there are times when I need a smaller

container for tatting items.

I purchased this Namaste Cali Buddy Case

from House of Stitches.  I used it for needlework supplies,

i.e., scissors and needles.

Recently, I loaded it up with tatting items.

I like the magnetic pieces to keep

scissors and crochet hooks in one place!

It is not large enough for a ball of fiber.

Is a nice size tho.

I noticed, during my last trip into LaPorte,

that there is a zipper pouch, called Skinny Mini 

Longish and narrow.   Would probably

be perfect for crochet hooks.

A few butterflies tatted w/beads.

It is becoming easier for me to add the beads,

and they are kinda pretty!

Tatted Motifs

#6) Motif from Mini Tats by Patti Duff

tatted with #20 LizBeth fiber

Color 650

This motif was a challenge - keeping all the ds on the ring 

was difficult for me - not sure it is quite even. 

(practice - practice - practice)

#7) Motif from Mini Tats.

tatted with #20 LizBeth fiber

Color 661

Lots of practice keeping the picots even!!!
