About Me

My photo
I have been a crafter of all sorts for many years, and really love working with Paper and Threads. I am loving the design work I am doing now. I really seem to be getting back into my "art", even if I am doing it by computer now, instead of actually getting dirty while drawing. ;-) I have been avid about Thread Arts since I was a kid, learning to Crochet at 7, then Knit, Embroider, Needle Lace and finally Needle Tat. I love to design as well and am looking forward to taking the Needle Tatting that further step as well.

Bright "Duchess"

I just LOVE this pattern by Marilee Rockley!  This one is done in one of my Hand Dyed Threads (HDT) called Springtime which is a nice bright Spring green along with some yellow and a touch of light blue.  The beads are a terrific match for the thread used.  Necklace length is 21", including clasp.  Earrings are made from a single repeat of the pattern used in the necklace and are 1-1/2" wide by 2" long (not including earring wire)  Earrings have been stiffened to hold their shape nicely as they are larger than most of my earrings.


Duchess in Springtime HDT  $20.00 USD
If you like this pattern as much as I do but would like to see it in a different color, just drop me a line and I'd be happy to make one up just for you in your color scheme/s

Tatted Bridal Garter

Resizable Tatted Bridal Garter $30 US
This Tatted Bridal Garter is made to be sized to any needed size with a button hole, placed on the back inside of the Garter.  The elastic is held with a safety pin, so it is easy to grab ahold of.  To make the Garter smaller than it currently is, you just pull the elastic up to fit.  You can stitch the new size, or just use a safety pin to hold it.  If you need it larger than its current size, you just need to remove the elastic and add a piece sized for you.  This Garter is made with over 1 yard of a very pretty silky Blanket Binding that I have added tatting on the bottom edge.  The tatting is done in size 80 thread in a very pale variegated blue & white.  The little rose is also tatted and the beads are glass pearl seed beads & Swarovski Bi-Cone beads.  The Garter comes with a box to keep your keepsake in.
