1000th post

To celebrate my 1000th post, I am giving away three blinged shuttles and three tatted magnolias (about 2 inches across). The magnolia pattern is by Nancy Tracy of Be-stitched, just in case you would like to tat your own magnolias.

Just leave a comment here on how you will use this piece of tatting and I will use the random number generator to pick three names on 19 Nov 2010.





Using the randon number generator, the first name drawn wins the white magnolia with the darker pink shuttle, 2nd name drawn wins the variegated yellow magnolia with the white shuttle, and 3rd name drawn - the pink magnolia with the light pink shuttle. The back of the shuttle is also blinged but you will have to win the shuttle to have a peek.

  1. Who wouldn't win a flower, made by a real artist?? Well, the magnolia I would use as a corsage on my sweater or jacket, the shuttles, who knows, maybe they could transfer the skill of tatting, wouldn't that be nice?

  4. Lovely work. I would use the three tatted Magnolias on a hat I am knitting for my Niece, I think that would be really cute. The shuttles are very pretty and would love the chance to add them to my meager collection of only two.
    Thanks.

  5. Congrats to your 1000 post!
    I wanted to tat these magnolias myself but winning one would even be more fun! I would decorate my table with it when spring is coming again.
    And I could use the beautiful shuttle to tat another then and another and another and another...

  6. I would either make a pin to wear out of the magnolia or put it on a headband to wear. They are all so beautiful and so are your shuttles!
    Have a blessed Day,

  10. Your tatted magnolias are magnificent!! I would use one on a crazy quilt. I don't tat, although it is on my list of things to learn since I started crazy quilting. Your blog is very interesting, especially like the bits about Singapore. I was there several times in the 1970's and loved it.

  30. The magnolia would be perfect on my hat that I have added tatting to. here is the post http://ladytats.blogspot.com/2009/03/ornament-and-hat.html
    as for the shuttle, I don't have any that are that pretty. so I would feel very elegant using one of these shuttles.
    You do very good work I love coming and looking at your blog.

  33. 1000 posts? That's amazing!

    I would LOVE to tat that magnolia - it's so pretty!!

    Hmm, I would attach the magnolia to a headband.

    Hand-decorated headbands are all the rage here in the caribbean - and this would DEFINITELY be one-of-a-kind

  34. Just love the tatting. I could use it for a necklace or wear it as a pin. It would make a beautiful accent for the edge of a pin cushion. And the tatting shuttle would definitely be put to good use. I really love your web site...always such pretty things.
