Toccata in Purple



Tatted in Flora Size 20 with Swarovski bicone crystals and Delica beads. The chain length can be adjusted as required. I think this is the last Toccata necklace for now. Hope you enjoyed all the five different colours.

The Toccata pattern is by Marilee Rockley and can be found in this book.

Berries


I had some Haagen Daz strawberry ice cream with this. I was inspired by Margaret's post here. Mine is a poor example though.

Driburg


Another one from Adelheid Dangela's Occhi Patchwork book. Tatted in Size 20, 40 and 80. I think this looks best in Size 20 threads. Some patterns just do. I like how the centre rings overlap each other, making it a little 3D.


I love how this looks.
Does it remind you of a lotus flower?

Patchwork Tatting Project 2014 (WIP 6)



Okay, I am going to stop here for now. 
This last row was a little tedious. 
If I leave it, it could make a nice tree. 
Or I could continue . . . . .
but not now.


I have not heard from Pigmini regarding her win of the Toccata necklace. If I do not hear from her by tomorrow, I will pick a new winner.

Sun Going Down On Me




Was it an Elton John song with those lyrics?
Well, this is what it looks like from my window.
Sunset these days are around 19:09

Tea @ Pique-Nique





A perfect after-lunch tea which I shared with a friend.
Lemon meringue cupcake with Earl grey tea.
Then an additional red velvet cupcake.
