Tatted Doily



Here is a doily that I have started to make using my grandmother's tatting thread. The thread is ecru, and because it is vintage, sometimes it gets knotted, which can make it tricky to tat with. I am currently adding another round to this doily, and am thinking of adding a fourth round with clover leaves after that. The pattern is my own.

Let me know what you think of it.

My lil hedgie


Hi all, It's been a while since I last posted. Here's what I've been up to- I've been embroidering this lil hedgehog. It was a free kit with a cross-stitching magazine. I still have to finish up the other bumble bee, and his other foot, and outline the whole thing in black in backstitch.

What do you guys think of it? What have you all been up to?
