Jenn tatted the snowflake from a pattern found on Patrycja's blog "Milczenie nitek" which she'll have to do again as she noticed a small mistake.

Muskaan started with a small motif by Mónica Manceñido called Peace and Tolerance Tiny Heart. The design was easily modified into a diamond. Lots of other variations ensued.

Batty Tatter has an assortment of wriggling bookworms done, each one different and looking like it's squiggling off the page. One more done fresh off the drying rack.

Lilas is still experimenting with thread dyes and is currently working with reds and pinks on size 40 DMC thread, like this HDT she used for the necklace and bracelet.

Sue finished the dragon she was working on and named this one Hagua.

Cigdem used Russian Chaorite for this necklace and she had to try out several designs before finding one worthy of these beautiful stones. Marquise is the name of this necklace that uses a perfect shade of mystic royal blue crystals and metallic silver thread.

Lelia found the pattern for this square motif on Ninetta's Blog. This edging uses a  pattern from Jeanette Baker's book, Learn to Tat and is done in Lizbeth, size 80, colour 168 Latte Foam. These were the 4 samples she tatted and she liked the Jeanette Baker

Fox is on the seventh row of the Jan Stawasz Monster Doily using reverse tatting for the chains rather than flipping all the time, but that makes is harder when she has to un-tat the DMC perle thread.

Marie used Lizbeth, size 20, Boysenberry to dress up this antique pin. This pretty pin was a thrift store find embellished with Lizbeth, size 20, Boysenberry. This lovely cameo is beautifully encased in tatting and pearls.

Martha saw Jane Eborall's bauble and it made her think of a fish. So of course she had to make her very own bauble fish.

The second is done in Lizbeth size 40 Island Breeze with #3 Twisted Bugle Light Blue Czech Glass Beads.
