well, I am now at the third round of Jon's Tat-Along and after reading Val's blog, decided I would change colours at this point. AND add a few... beads. I can thank Maureen for the inspiration! Ohhh, it is going to be so pretty! Thanks, Jon!
It is clear to see that my creativity is definitely informed by careful considerations of Tat-land comments and also the scrutiny of all the tatting blogs I read. Of course, I listen to the wind and my cat... : ))
LATER: Too much introspection! The round in grey is all WRONG! Maybe I should not be tatting in the wee hours? : 0
Can't wait to see the finished project!! :)
ReplyDeleteMe too! Thanks, Sue.

this is going to look so pretty Fox. The yellow are grey will really pop. and the soft grey will set off the design. and of course it wouldn't be a Fox creation without some beads. You do a very good job knowing what and where to add them.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ladytats. : )

LOVE the colors! Hurray for Beads!
ReplyDeleteIndeed! Hurray!
DeleteFox : ))
Lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me many years ago a dear friend of mind made an crochet afghan for her daughter using similar colors (she added white). At the time, I was not sure I LIKED it!!! It did take a bit for it to 'grow' on me. As time went by, she passed away and her daughter gave me the afghan! So, now that the weather is getting cooler, its time to think about bring my 'fond treasure' out for the winter. Thank you for bring back a wonderful memory!
Thank you for telling me about this, Nancy. Lovely to be a catalyst to the memory!.

hehehe, you're having fun, aren't you, Fox? I've come to a decision on round 3 now. we'll see about #4.
ReplyDeleteLove what you picked! Also, added your link on this post. Forgot!
DeleteFox : ))
It's always interesting (and often amusing) to 'observe' your decision-making and thought processes! You'll probably have this finished this evening!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your kind words on my blog! I very much enjoy reading and commenting on the blogs. It's a stress reliever for me.
Hi, Kathy,
DeleteYes, I find blog-following a big stress-reliever for me as well.
And, no - I am not that fast!

Hi Fox
ReplyDeleteYou are having fun, I like your new banner looks very nice.
Tatting into the wee small hours is not good for you or tatting. Naughty girl get some sleep
Margaret
Thanks for noticing the banner, Margaret! Ah, sleep is elusive; thus I tat. I am trying to get to bed earlier...no luck so far...

Of course I can't see the colors in real life, but the gray looks great from here. I hope you haven't cut it off yet!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Miranda,
DeleteI HAD to cut it off. Pattern was all messed up by my late hours! I am tatting that row again...
Fox : )
So, the grey round is only "wrong" due to stitch counts right?
ReplyDeleteI just want to make sure because I think the color choice of the thread and beads is perfect!
<3
Jess, the thread is perfect. The pattern is where I messed up big time!
DeleteFox : )
Hi Fox!
ReplyDeleteLove the doily that you are doing the colours are great as well. Thanks for visiting my blog! It was great to hear from you I still follow your blog and really enjoy looking at all of the stuff that you make!
I'm liking that color choice - it will be fun to see it progress. And heck, I can't tat much past 9pm or my eyes see stitches that aren't there!
