Current projects:

An unconventional snowflake I'm working on.  Pattern is from a book by Jennifer Williams.

and now a bracelet in progress, my own pattern.

well, time is getting away from me, but not going to get away too far.  committed to providing info/photos/ and anything else I can!

Not teaching at tat days this year, but wonderful news - my oldest daughter Paige is!  She has great patterns she designed years ago and will be teaching them.  I'm so proud of her.  I learned to tat and taught her a tiny bit of the basics and she has taken off with it.

her talent is showcased at www.PaigeDeputyDesigns.com which includes personal projects, like tatting and more, as well as her interior design portfolio.

here are a couple photos of her tatting that are of the general type (using rings) that I think she will be teaching us at tat days.

I'm still playing with my spring bouquet flower choices.  Anyone have any colors they love for their spring flowers?  ignore the tape, these "little" bouquets are taped around my computer to keep me happy.

Playing with colors, love these colors together in a bouquet.  Think I need a different purple but the red and yellow are pretty close.  Purple flowers I will be making are like one in first bouquet.  Not sure what shape flowers the rest will be.  I love the leaves, I bought 2 threads, a plain green as a back up in case I didn't love this one.  It is the twirlz thread by Lizbeth and it is the green/blue combination.  I think it makes awesome leaves.

Does anyone out there have any amazing flower combinations?  

this is a heart made with size 10 thread which I have never broken.  I like the dainty look of the smaller threads but get frustrated when they break, normally close to end of project.

this is the 

SweetHeart pattern by Birgit Phelps

Who else has made this pattern?  Who else breaks their thread?

Well it's been a long time again.  Now that I have a day job I hope to blog more often.

Here's one of my biggest frustrations, I break thread too easily. Size 20 is just not my friend.

I get close to the end and break my thread. Yikes!

What is your biggest frustration?
