Over the week-end ....

Photos (above) ... Morton Arboretum.

I enjoyed the trails.   DH attended a workshop on tree pruning.

Following our time in Lisle, we drove to Northlake, IL, met up with our son and his girlfriend.

This dish bottom had a cabbage design - and the top with three rabbits!  Called Riverside glass.

Our son found this unique glass that glows under blacklight.

Such a lace-like design.

 

Complete Book of Tatting by Rebecca Jones

I may have tatted more - from this book.   I am 100% sure I used it for reference many times.

I had to see if I had photos of the tatting I made from Rebecca Jones book.   And I do, have photos.  I think it might have been the first tatting book I ever purchased.   For information on any of these pieces, see the link below.
