Taking Time For Tiny

...threads, that is. I used Ninetta's pre-wound shuttles for this. She had the shuttles filled with DMC #80, and also had loaded some nice beads, so I tatted till one shuttle was empty:


One other thing to show and that is from Sherry's T.I.A.S. Day Three. I believe Day Four is up, so I had better have a look.


The Mystery Doily is progressing nicely - still! 

Tonight will be a test as I am going to finish Row Too - and you know 
that means a final join..... : O

  1. Since you finished round 1 so well, I think you will have no trouble with round 2. That is a pretty little motif, and how lucky to have some thread and beads with the shuttles.
    I am starting my TIAS over, I snugged my chains up too tight, there is no way to get it to lay flat with the picots smooth and straight. f

    1. I thought my TIAS was too loose and that it was supposed to cup. Lucky for me, for once I had it right! : ))

  3. Now that is tiny tatting! It's so cute! I haven't started Sherry's TIAS yet... too many distractions... but I do have the pages printed out!

    1. No smaller than all those samples you tatted up a while back with Oliver Twist! I need so much more practice - especially with Ninetta’s shuttles, but am enjoying the process a lot! : )

    1. From Italy, sent to me by Ninetta. It is blogged about in the previous post or one or two back. : ))
