Pop Maria saw these earrings some time ago on Pinterest and she likes them very much but she doesn't know who created them. Any ideas?

Elsa's large project for 2017 is her Flower Carpet shawl which she is doing in size 20 thread and the larger thread than she used for the Harlequin shawl means she only needs 9 rows to make it wide enough. She's working with Lizbeth size 20 Nos. 626 and 627 and Rocailles 11/0 Miyuki "Opaque Antique Beige".

Diane had a visit from family and Sophie fell in love with her Blue Fudge Ice Drop and wanted another one in pink, but Diane didn't get finished in time for her to take it home. A flu bug kept her from subbing so she tatted more St Patrick's Ice Drops. A friend suggested hanging the charm from the bottom, so she tried it, but didn't like the result. She's still enjoying playing with different gems and different ribbons. When she finds a large charm, she hangs it from the back of the Ice Drop. It took her most of a day to design this Purple Fudge Ice Drop and she notes that working with dark brown can be really difficult, especially when trying to retro-tat!

Eliz is still struggling to focus on anything for very long so she's been finishing off some projects that mostly just needed the ends hid. The Victorian Heart from an unknown magazine source and unknown designer, #2 in 25 Motif Challenge of 2017 size 16 Finca perle cotton, along with various other projects she has shown previously.

Fox is blaming the beads for the slow going on this lovely doily.

Marie is calling this embellished button that she used to create a pendant, "Crystal". "For His Glory" is the name she gave this tatsmithed cross.

Muskaan created a diagram for, as well as a notated pattern in modern terms for this sampler from Coats and Clark book #121 as requested by Georgia. Then she went a step further and tatted it as well. This was a single-sided scalloped edging from Book 5 by Marie Antoinette Hees but she returned back along the same path, and created a bookmark, complete with a tail and charm, all in one pass.

Phyllis made Jane's TIAS shown here going down a ramp, since she joined her head backwards, tatted in size 20 thread she hand dyed. She completed February's paperclip project, a delightful little heart whose pattern can be found on the Online Tatting 2017 page.

Sue has a start on a new project and she's sharing a teaser. Here it is, the Star from 6 Crowns from Schiffchenspitze 1919 Tina Frauberger, tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Elderberry Jam.

Marthanne selected her next motif for the challenge from A Tatter's Workbook, sample #56, which in the book it is stated that the 1925 price for the lace was $.50 per yard. Since Marthanne didn't time it on the first one, she tatted it again, taking 1 hour and 12 minutes and allowing for 2017 inflation it prices out at $6.90.

Melanie has complete Day 10 of TIAS.

Lelia thinks Jane's Day 6 of TIAS might be an umbrella, or a mushroom top, or a sea shell, or maybe a fan, or a teacup. Day 7 maybe it's a skirt, or a bird. After Day 8 she's not sure, but she's still tatting it in 2 different colours. The puzzle continues with Day 9. Day 10 working in blue Lizbeth Size 20 #403 Winter Ice Twirlz. Day 10 in Lizbeth Size 20 #161 Sea Island Citrus.

Cindy received  a shoebox of thread from her Mom's friend which was mostly white and she added some variegated thread to make this coaster from the 'New Tatting' book by Tomoko Morimoto. She used some of the size 80 thread to make Mary Konior's Large Cross from her Tatting with Visual Patterns book.

Diane finished her Eightsome Reel doily from A Pattern Book of Tatting by Mary Konior, but not without frustration as she miscounted the number of wraps required when she filled her shuttle and had to add thread, but then realized when she ran out again, that she's added enough thread not for one motif, but for one ring. She tatted Day 10 of TIAS but she needs to figure out how to add links when she's posting from her iPad. Another Ice Drop is completed. She's still geared up for tatting green Ice Drops. She tatted the first motif for her sister-in-law's runner in size 20 Lizbeth #693, Linen Med. Another Valentine's Ice Drop joins her collection. She has another St. Patrick's Day Ice Drop done, but she thinks she placed the charm in a funny way, or the ribbon is too stiff, because she doesn't like how it turned out. She also managed another motif on her runner.

Fox doesn't have any more size 40, but she has lots of size 80, and started the same design as she's been using for the boys in size 80 for Maeve, who loves purple. She's almost done with Shrek!

Margaret tatted the butterfly that Muskaan wrote up the pattern for, first in Lizbeth Springtime size 20, then in Green Coral Sea size 20, although the second time she graduated the picots on the top wing.

Muskaan had some thread left over from another project and had to tat Phyllis' Fish paperclip bookmark. Day 10 of TIAS she's thinking it's a lady in a gown. The Block heart made in size 3 or 5 thread is a nice size for a brooch, pendant or lapel pin.

Sue tatted the Celandine Necklace by Kersti in size 40 Lizbeth Lilac Dk. with some random beads she had.
