It's....

.... Harrogate Lace Fair tomorrow and I'm going!!!  Have some cash with me.... and on collect are a shuttle, some thread and a book!!

Right.... well, I couldn't sit and do no tatting this week!!  So, apart from the hanky edging I'm doing, I started a pattern of Sally Kerson's ...  Not being a traditionalist in lace of any description... I LOVE colour!!!

So, it's rainbow colours!!


The buttons were in my stash, as were the beads, and the thread is an old coats ball, looks a lot like Rainbow Taffy!!

I think it'll look good when it's finished!!  Mind you, I'm still trying to decide which colour to pick to do earwigs!!!  (all 7??)

Anyway, on with food before I attack the shuttles again!!

Chat later

    1. Thanks for publishing it Sally! I think it's gorgeous!! I'm on the 7th button now - deep pink!! And I found a 'pendant' style bead that looks like a hailstone to go 'in the middle'!!! So it should look interesting!! I'll keep the blog posted on the progress!!
