...the postman delivered a package... for my Hubby!

 So? You say.

Well, when the return address says it is from Krystledawne Fine Lace Jewelry, It should be addressed to me! Me, her Mom... geesh! 

I placed the said package on my Hubby's desk and ignored it! Okay, I did glance a few times at it. I even fondled it. Also held it up to the light. Did you know that manila envelopes/packages do not show the content within it very well? Well, I know now! (Hubby didn't know that his package was being treated in that fashion.. he was napping... shhhhhhh!)

Before Dinner time Hubby called for me, he was in his office going through todays mail. He asked do I want my Christmas present now or at Christmas. Then I was having an out of body experience! I heard my voice say "at Christmas time"  WHAT? I never would say that.. I want things now... now.. especially when it is from one of my daughters! I came back to my body when I heard Hubby say.. here, as he tossed the package to me. Thankfully I arrived in time to actually catch it!

I opened it and went into this gleeful type of excitement (don't worry, that is my normal). Finally!!!! I have arrived! I now possess some of the lovely HDT from that Dr. that many of you know! Imagine that? My own Hubby had to purchase these from the Doctor for me to have anything of hers! 

Humph! Don't Moms get seniority from their talented kids?


Lovely Yummy HDT from the Famous Dr. Von Threadmore!



There was another lovely surprise in the package!



I do love clips like these for my wayward outgrowing bangs!
 Even more so, it was made by Krystle!





..few blogs ago, I had mentioned the beautiful vintage beads that I have and plan to use them for a Victorian Lamp shade. Here they are!





This packet of beads will be on their way to Dr. Von Threadmore,
I am hoping to inspire her to make colors for these!!! 
Variegated would be perfect! Don'cha think?
(which she gets to keep)  ;-)





* Psalm 86:12
I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever.

Yes I will Lord!!!!

...A New Book That Surged My Tatting Fingers On!

Image
 I have few books for tatting instructions ...how to Celtic, how to needle, how to shuttle and numerous pages of patterns for tatting from online, doily this, edging that, motif those. I wanted something more or different to do. After Christmas I batted my puppy dog eyes (hubby says they are) at Hubby for a book that I wanted for Christmas but did not get. He faltered (I am so bad, I knew he would) and said for me to order it. I ordered it and it arrived sometime last week. I have been tatting my fingers off with glee! After all, this girl here received lots of threads and shuttles for Christmas... from that sweet Hubby! The book that I had to have was,    A TATTER'S WORKBOOK, edited by J&K. Kliot Approximately 172 patterns, 112 pages. Includes corner and straight edgings, medallions, round doily borders,collar border. This is a most unusual and fascinating collection of tatting patterns as recorded in a New England notebook by an anonymous tatter in the 1920's. The pa

...To Chain or Not To Chain!

I have been tatting my heart out since the Palmetto Tatting Guild's Tat Days this past year. I have come a long ways since. I have researched on tattings and tried many patterns... I still am, to improve my abilities and develop "my style". My daughter has become an amazing tatter in jewelry with updated modern twist. She just amazes me to no end. As my confidence grew, my style is also growing. Maybe I should say preferences instead of style. I have learned that I do not "like" to create things without patterns. I am not "into" making things other than doilies and edgings but if needed to will do the other things. I also am not at all keen on tatting with the ball of thread, multiple shuttles, ends and sewing in ends... I like doing one shuttle, less stuff to fuss with.  Now with that said.. I prefer rings and chains. So I had to make a compromise with myself and use the ball or use the second shuttle as the ball. Then again, I am falling in love wi
