Time for Some Tatting
Yep, it's that time of year again. My mom, the mad tatter, is busy getting ready for her holiday boutiques. She has one this weekend and one in December. I'm always tasked with helping prepare her tatted goodies which she will sell at the boutique to her admirers that come from far and wide to see her!
I've been busy making pincushions:

ReplyDeleteHi Cathy,
ReplyDeleteI arrived on your page via a foreign blog that I just discovered.
Love the tatting you've done (something I've also tried but should dig deeper into it :-)
Kind greetings,
