HDT overload

I had promised sometime back that I will display my HDT treasures… well here it is….
Now the only problem is what do I do with this lot????
Threads include :-
Marilee - Tiger eye, Roses, Dark Red, Rhubarb crisp, Leafy, cool waters and finally Hydrangea.
Sherry - Vickies Lilac, Tutti Frutti & Spring Poppies, Tulips & Sunset sky, Rust, Yummy Grapefruit, Coffee & Cream and spring poppies again.
All these are in size 20, except for one spool of spring poppies and dark red.
Just like Laura I am more comfortable using Size 20 thread but with tremendous persuasion from Sherry I finally tried size 80 - and she was right it really fine and very good.
Conclusion - It’s to painful to see it wasted – I wanna keep it just as it is!
Now the problem lies when both of them being their naughty self keep coming out with different colors that it becomes painful to resist the temptation and then just like HDT addicts I finally have to give in. Girls... Please have mercy! :-)

Coasters again

And this time it is with HDT – Tiger eye! Lovely color and this is my fav. Sometime while browsing through my regular blogs on tatting I came across one Doily which just took my breath away… I had just finished with my coasters by then and was just thinking of doing a doily to match it and voila! There it was. This is by clyde and he gave a wonderful name to his doily “Waves” and it truly is.
So Clyde, This one is for you!

Bookmarks again!


Seems like tatting bookmarks are most addictive…at least to me! Actually they are great to work at. They are simple and very elegant and as Marty put in, they also make an excellent gift.

I simply adore bookmarks! So here’s one more to my List. This one is done in Marilee’s thread. I totally agree with Clyde and Laura and will say that H.D.T is the best.

I must admit though that I have been saving them for God knows what! I think its time I used them… for only then I can do more justice and buy more.
