Tatted butterflies for Vanessa

The photo shows Vanessa's butterfiles which I tatted for her. She will use some in a CQ collage for her daughter who is getting married. It arrived safe and sound so I can now show you the photo of her butterflies. I wanted her to see it first. It took some time to arrive and I was afraid it got lost in the mail, so I started making some more. I think I know what to do with them. They will be my October giveaway which I will put up next week. Do look out for them. Vanessa, you are most welcome to join, too. I normally use Size 20 threads but only recently I discovered HDT from Sherry and Size 80 threads. I love her HDTs. It is still easier to tat with Size 20 but some projects should be done in Size 80 especially if you want the extra delicate lacey look.
