It just occured to me that I should mention that my niece is walking as part of a fundraiser for breast cancer which takes place in Chicago in August, 2008. Here is one article that was written about her last month. She did reach her goal of $3,000 and the person who will be walking with her also raised $3,000.

BTW, as a gentle reminder...I had my mammogram last Monday and got a letter yesterday saying it was normal. I expected it to be, but it's always nice to have that validation.

Twisted Oaks Designs Needle Nanny

2008-07-14T15:39:00.002-05:00

I've just completed this gorgeous little needle nanny by Twisted Oaks Designs, which was sold in aid of Breast Cancer.

It is done 1 over 1 using Dinky-Dyes silk. It was a bit hard on my poor old eyes, but is worth it because it's so cute :)

Breast Cancer Awareness Amulet Bag ~ Contest

2008-07-09T13:40:00.003-05:00

Gina emailed me and asked if she could offer an item for a contest.

This is what she sent. Its it goregous!

I used DMC Cebelia size 30 pink thread. The beads are seed beads, probably size 11 or 10. That's the most common size I buy but these were out of the original container so I can't say for sure. The pattern is slightly adapted from Dianna Stevens book of patterns titled "It's in the Bag". http://www.domesticarts.com/Books/Inthebag.htm It's shuttle tatted (as opposed to needle tatted) and probably took 5-6 hours to complete. I've tatted several of these bags and they are always appreciated.

Thanks Gina for your wonderful donation! You did an amazing job!

Like Zarina, I have some stitching in pink to show. I'm primarily a tatter, but crocheted for years before learning to tat and so I still crochet,just not as often.

These are thimbleholders I crocheted for a class I taught.

This is a brooch I tatted around a vintage earring for another tatter who is a breast survivor.

And an angel for someone else.

Zarina's tatting in pink

2008-05-27T21:25:00.004-05:00

I thought would it not be great if contributers can post their work in pink. Here is mine, tatting using Hakelgarn 20.

This is a bunch of bookmarks using a variety of patterns taken from the Internet.

I found this cute bunny but I think I need more work on it. The body should be more plumb.

This is from Konior's Visual Tatting Black Magic in pink.
