Tatted Necklace

I have also recently started making tatted jewelry! I wasn't sure how I felt about tatted jewelry when I first started tatting, but now that I have actually made a necklace I really like it!

I found this pattern on pieknits.com. I had to make it a few repeats bigger than she did, but over all I'm quite pleased with how it turned out!

Winter Crafts

Goodness has it been a cold winter! I'm definitely ready for it to be over. Although it is nice in the sense that you get to stay inside and eat soup, and it offers you lots of time to craft. It also means that there is school to be done.

So during these cold winter days I have made the most of my time making snowflakes and other things.  I won't bore you with more pictures of ornaments and snowflakes. here are a few of the other things i have been making!

This is going to be the collar of a christening gown. I'm working on the lace for the skirt now. I hope to make matching booties and a bonnet as well.

This is a snood I made for my sister. I thought she just wanted a bun cover but it turned out she wanted something more. So this is what I came up with.  

I know this isn't tatting like I normally put on here, but I have been working on this for a while now. I find crazy quilting to be fun because you don't really know what it is going to look like! It isn't very big right now but it will get there. I'm going to put a big rectangle (the above shown) in the center and then I'm going to put more smaller ones around the edge. I'm also going to embroider and bead it heavily. 

That is what I have been doing of late! I hope you enjoyed!
