I Got Mail!

Well, here it is ready for the penultimate row. But, I will have to use Lea's thread that was not from the same dye lot. If you recall, I had a long wait for the mail and the thread could not be identical to the first shipment. 

The lesson here is to buy more than you require - always! I'm too cheap and then pay more in the end - financially as well as emotionally. There's a good lesson there, new tatters! Take heed.

Though the threads are not a perfect match, I think it will be pretty with the two shades.


April was the postal date! 
From umintsuru in the post yesterday:



Thank you Wendy!

I will not add more rows to the Renukek and may indeed try it again using these threads individually in order to achieve a smaller result.

Can you believe how long that took!

Not Tatting, But Very Proud....


Just wanted you to know why my tatting 
has not been as prolific as it was in the past.
I have been tangling!

I'm pretty chuffed!

I Love This Pattern!


This will not be a large mat, which is great. I really do prefer the finer threads, usually #80, but this HDT is a #50, a bit sturdier than my regular choice. I like it.
