Last night was tatting Tuesday. I went to the Senior Center and tatted with my friends. It was so much fun, I tatted on the never ending flag but I also tatted on a small motif...It was so good to tat on something else for a change. I had to laugh at myself though cause I was almost finished with this little motif and I discovered that I hadn't made the picots big enough and it would not close and become a circle like it should...I was just spinning my wheels with this one...Oh, well, another little piece to add to something. I think I'll take some of my little tatting castoffs and do what BSOTF did with hers....see this link...

She used some of her castoff tatting and put them into the clear glass balls and used them for Christmas tree ornaments. Cute idea. I love it and I think I'll do some like this and give to some of my tatting buddies for Christmas. Anyway, I had such a good time Tuesday and I didn't care if I got anything done. These ladies are all so wonderful and I am so glad they are my friends...Again, I'll show you what I do with it later. I promise I'll take a picture and show you. I have not been home long enough to add my pictures this week. I have several to show, so please stay tuned. Happy Holidays!

What a nice idea for using your mistakes. It is such a shame to throw anything away, especially something that takes so much work to make.
I'd love to see some of your tatting. I can tat but never did get the rhythm down where it didn't feel awkward. I kept my shuttles and all of my supplies in a bag in case I decide to give it a try again.
