From the cover ....

   This is motif #21.   I tatted this motif with Marilee Rockley's lovely HDT.   This color reminds me of Hello Kitty and hearts.    

It is from Myra Piper's book Tatting.   This is one of 2 motifs that are on the front cover of her book.   


My new book:
Went to Mitsuwa Marketplace earlier today - for the Summer Bon Dance Festival.   Had a delightful time.  Kinokuniya Books is in the marketplace - there were other tatting books; however, I really liked this one.  DS has a discount card - which was helpful!    I thought the linen pieces with edges so attractive.

No. 13

Pattern from
Tatting 
by Myra Piper

After reading Diane's blog, Lace-Lovin' Librarian, I couldn't resist pulling out my book and selecting one of the motifs.   To see more designs, see her posts HERE and HERE.  Maybe even give her Tribute to Myra pattern a try - link HERE.

 This is motif No. 13 - tatted with Lizbeth size 20, Color 170.
I'm very fond of this pattern.   I've done a few motifs & initially found them quite a challenge!    It is unfortunate this book is so hard to find.

Fantastic Mail Day ...

My Bunny Shuttles arrived.    Made by Carollyn, who blogs at Carollyn's Tatting Blog.   Extraordinary!


I was fortunate to have my name drawn by Sandra Sullivan in a recent Facebook giveaway.    These were the SIX patterns I chose from her Halloween Collections.    They are so fun!   

Such wonderful mail ; )
