If you love tatted lace, jewellery, plants and anything handcrafted, come back often.
I will regularly post items that are made by me, plants that I grow and interesting things that I photograph.
Six done, six to go. Still a long while before this gets done. I am getting a little restless and wanting to start on a new project. I am worried about having enough threads. To solve that I have to add more colours.
If you look closely, you can see the light brown pods full of fibres. We grew up sleeping on pillows stuffed with these fibres. I remember there was a kapok tree in grandma's garden.
We booked a table thinking it was a buffet lunch but realised when we got there it was a totally new restaurant. It was a large place but we were the only other table there for Sunday lunch at 12 noon. Perhaps it will get busy later in the day or for dinner, supper or late night drinks. There are still places in Singapore that are not crowded.
Well, food was good and we had excellent service from a fine young waiter from Spain.
I was wrong. The next round was not joining to the centrepiece yet. Since the last post, I have added 2 rounds. I still have 11 more motifs to add to. It is time consuming but it does look quite pretty.
This is finally done. Tatted in Lizbeth Size 40, this measures about 19 inches across. Thank you Fox for pointing me to this challenge. I had fun matching the thread colours. The last round was a little tedious because I kept making silly mistakes.
They are flowering and some trees have more flowers than leaves. A popular tree along this expressway. It would be nice to see mass planting of this tree in a park. Imagine all the trees flowering at the same time. Experience the golden shower of yellow petals.
