A First For Me After Three Years!


I did not have one un-tat 
in the first part of this Iris Niebach pattern!  
Unheard of success for a brand new pattern! 

I think the zentangles are just the thing I needed. I seem to be more relaxed at tatting, but I hold that fine pen in an iron grip now!

Love the #40 HDT from Jess.  Such pretty colours, and I like the stiffness of the thread, for it holds the shape of the stitches beautifully.
