Another completed Christmas Secret

Here is another large suncatcher.  This is for 
another sweet lady friend of ours.
It's tatted in Yarnplayer's HDT size 40 Raspberry 
Sorbet.
 It's another one of a kind. With large glass beads.
Here is a close up of the center.
Funny thing is that I bought this gorgeous thread 
not knowing what I was going to do with it, but 
I just had to have it.  2 weeks later I found out 
pink is our friend's favorite color and I knew 
immediately what it was going to be used for!!
Happy tatting everyone!!!
And Merry Christmas!!!  :)

Finally another update for you!!!

 Well, I finished another round on the next large suncatcher.
It is inspired by the final round of the Renulek Spring 2016
Spring Doily.
All I have to do is figure out how I am joining it to 
the ring and I will have a finished project.  Oh, 
I have already sewn in the ends since the pictures.
Happy tatting!!!  :)

Got a chance to finish the row!!

My hubby had to work tonight so I got a chance 
to finish this row.
It's night out so I had to use the flash on my 
camera and the zoom, but I love how it shows 
the detail of the doily!!  :)
Happy tatting!!
Hope you are getting your holiday items finished!!  :)

A little more progress(blocking) on large tatted suncatcher

Here's some pictures to show the 
design now that it is being blocked.
The color of the thread darkened while wet, but 
I think when it's dry it will match the beads again.
I like the design, but wish it had more space and 
didn't have to be stretched to death to get it "open".
I probably have 2 more rounds to fit the ring.
Happy tatting everyone!!!  :)

I am still trying to get progress accomplished on these!!!

Made some progress tonight while hubby had a 
job outside of the house for a little while.
I was hoping to have this round done, but I just 
can't stay up any later(it's almost midnight here).
This is the Mystery Doily for those who don't know.
 And this project is taking forever due to me having 
to design it.  At least this one can sit out and be 
tatted in front of hubby without problems of him 
claiming it-since he knows it's a Christmas gift!
It will be a large suncatcher when done(when!).
I believe it will take some blocking as the other 
one did, before it will gone on after this round.
Happy tatting and have a great day!!!  :)

Pink Sorbet Large Suncatcher

I have continued working on this large suncatcher, 
but I am realizing that for me designing takes lots 
of time and thinking, some drawing, and some cutting.
I love this round!!!  It's not what I was originally 
thinking, but it's so "cute".  :)
 Here's a close-up.  :)
Having to wait till next week to continue due to 
a granddaughter invasion, and preparation for it.
Have a fabulous tatting time!!!  :)

Next Christmas Secret in progress.

Here's the start. 
I am using Yarnplayer's new HDT Raspberry Sorbet.
And the beads with the pink are heavy glass, and 
the clear beads are shaped like roses and seem to be 
glass.  I am now working on what's next in the tatting 
of the next round.
 Here's a close-up.
Happy tatting and have a wonderful weekend!!!  :)
