Special Project

Good afternoon!  I have been super busy in the Atelier working on a special project.  Valdani Thread Co. will be exhibiting at the International Quilt Show in Kansas City from May 17th through May 20th.  They have asked me to be a featured artist & to send a display of my tatting!  I am so excited!!!

Jim made a frame for me to put a velveteen covered foamcore board in to Valdani's specifications and this is how it looks:


It is 21"x21" square and will be filled with tatting.  I am still working on the placement of pieces and anchoring them down securely for shipment.

If any of you, dear readers, are in the Kansas City area, stop by the Valdani booth and buy yourself some of their fabulous thread.

DON'T FORGET THE MAY EVENT WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED TOMORROW MORNING!!!  IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE SO, PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT ON LAST WEDNESDAY'S BLOG POST FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN.  GOOD LUCK!!!

Well, I am off to start supper.  Look at what we're having tonight:


Fresh snap beans!  Yummy!
After I get things going in the kitchen, I'll be working on that display board.  Have a wonderful day & until tomorrow~
Happy Tatting!
