Not Much

Celtic Faire

Good morning, dear readers!

The chicken thief tried it again last night, but could not find a way into the hens.  We are going to put out a few traps this evening and see if we can catch the guilty party.  I still think it is a raccoon.  We've had foxes come through before, but they are never as persistent as raccoons seem to be.

 

The pendant I was working on using the Trinity foundation did not work out as I'd planned, so it's back to the drawing board.  I've snipped off yesterday's efforts and will begin again in a few minutes.  I did tat for a bit on a necklace project using Sulky Blendables 12 wt. quilting cotton-

 

 

The thread colors are very close to this little antique butter pat I use for working with seed beads.

 

Rosie Fey is getting revved up for her romp in the woods.  As soon as we finish, I plan to spend the day tatting away.  Let's hope I have better luck with different counts for that Trinity pendant!  Have a wonderful day & until tomorrow~

Happy Tatting!

 



Trinity Motif, Option One

Celtic Faire

Good morning, dear readers!

There is trouble in the Piney Woods!!!  Something got in our chicken coop and made off with one of our good laying hens.  Jim and I have been repairing the coop and checking the other hens for injuries.  I think it was probably a racoon.  We will remain vigilant over the next few nights to make sure there is no repeat.

 

Well, after the chicken coop repair delay, here is option one for the Trinity motif from yesterday-

 

 

This will make a great earring set!  What do you think?  I have another Trinity motif tatted up and will experiment with other counts today.  What shall I aim for- a pendant, a brooch or a larger earring?

 

Rosie Fey is whining at the door so I'd better take her out before we have an accident.  Plus she hasn't had a good romp in the woods yet due to our earlier chicken drama.  Have a great day & until tomorrow~

Happy Tatting!
