Well, this Friday has been a busy one filled with a variety of things. As our daughter's birthday is next week, I did a little special shopping this morning. I hope she will like all of her "goodies"!
The next thing I did was to check the poll.
The responses were tied, so I extended the poll on what I should use as the center accent of the Valdani doily WIP until Sunday morning. If you've not voted, please do.
Since my usual schedule was rather off kilter, I decided to take a break from tatting and crochet with some lovely aqua cotton a friend gave me. This color matches some of the birds and flowers on a favorite Vera Bradley tote. I debated crocheting an edging, but chose to do a scarf instead as I have 3 large balls of this thread. Here is what I've done so far:
It is a simple off-set shell pattern worked with a size 7 hook. I use this particular pattern a lot- it is a favorite because it that allows one to crochet on auto-pilot! Very simple and easy.
The kiddo is waiting for our afternoon "Gin & Tonic". Jocelin & I both LOVE to play gin rummy, so at least once or twice a week, we take an afternoon to play several hands and snack on something yummy with our tea. May you have a wonderful weekend doing whatever makes your soul sing! Until next week~
Happy Tatting!
How pretty!
