Cheryl has decided that rather than give up on her mistakes that she'd flaunt them on a pair of jeans. I love it!

Prabhjyotsaini tatted Jon Yusoff's Daisy Picot Snowflake to practice daisy picots. Then she tried Hearts in a Snowflake which didn't come out as well as she's hoped. Maybe it was the beads.

Bree likes her first attempt at this bookmark and has plans to make mor ein other colours. She has received her first batch of buttons to turn into snowflakes and these will be going out soon.

Diane tatted her favourite pattern; the Spinning Wheel glass mat from Tatting with Visual Patterns by Mary Konior in HDT Navy Greens from Jess! She thinks the colour looks good as a snowflake. So she did Doodad Snowflake #6 using the same size 40 Navy Greens HDT. Then of course there was Doodad Snowflake #2, again in Navy Greens from Jess! I think I see a pattern developing here.

Fox used some vintage thread that Ladytats sent her to tat this Jennifer Williams design. These hankies that Fox lovingly tatted were given to some dear family friends who seemed less than excited by them. Some people just don't know treasures when they see them. This next motif tatted in Ladytats’s Grandmother’s thread is the 5-pointed motif as written by Jennifer Williams. The second one also from Jennifer Williams looks very different from the one tatted by Frivole the other day.

Isdihara tatted this Horse on a Paperclip with Lizbeth 40 Spice Cake #182 and the pattern is taken from the Knight piece in Ineke Kuiperij's Chess Set book.

Jess used her size 40 Blue Ridge to tat one of Jane Eborall's button brooches.

Marie tatted these earrings for her shop, but decided to keep them. Of course this pendant was a good match, so she decided to keep it too and now all she needs is a bracelet to finish the set. Her husband's grandmother's cameo necklace was adorned with tatting in ecru number 50 thread and the peach was pearl cotton #12.

Martha shares her exploration of Let's Tat by Angeline Critchlow with a few of the things she made. Martha is working on a new book, and tempting us with this teaser.

Orsi did these 2 sets of earrings and hand dyed the colourful thread used on the first pair. She also did matching necklaces.

Wanda had all of her earrings and wine glass charms ready for the craft show mounted on cards, but she hadn't given any thought as to how to display them. Add a little ingenuity and a bit of garland and the results are amazing.

Jane has tatted Mariya Davydova's pansy pattern which she found a challenge because of all the Catherine Wheel joins.

Ginny has row 3 of the snow doily done.

Marta likes to read and of course every book needs a bookmark like this Bookmark with Overlapping Chains designed by Jon Yusoff.

Nancy was inspired to created a tablecloth, but since she wants it done in her lifetime, she's decided to tat it in size 10 thread. Each motif takes about 35 minutes, including hiding the ends and she has 23 motifs in the first row. One row down, a bunch more to go.

Bree needs buttons, so she's offering a 2 for 1 exchange; send her 2 small 4 hole coloured buttons and she'll send you back a tatted button snowflake.

Diane responded to a dare, and the result was motif #1 from Minitats by Patti Duff tatted in size 20 thread with lots of beads and a finding in the middle. The Tollway tatters met again and here is Diane's granddaughter Eva, with shuttles in hand, her daughter Alison working on the same Minitats motif, without the finding a beads and Denise working on a doodad snowflake that didn't turn out as expected. Sue Anna brought some of the new Aerlit shuttle for each of them and did her usual beautiful tatting. Carol showed them a beautiful bell that she had tatted, and demonstrated an alternate method of tatting split rings. Meanwhile Marilee, sporting a tatted necklace that matched her top, did some experimental tatting. Barbara was working with a metallic thread that kept breaking on her, but she kept her cool and went on tatting.

Fox continues to work on the Honey Napkin designed by Renulek. She received a surprise package from Denise with included a sweet little needle case with a tatted candy cane. This little motif by Jennifer Williams was just the sort of thing she needed as a break from the Honey Napkin, which continues to grow, even if it is tedious to tat. She tried out red for the next row, but it just wasn't right so she gave the row another try.

Jess was challenged by Fox to create a colourway based on some fall foliage and used Frivole's leaf design to test out Sorrell Splendour.

Marie has made up some tatting kits in both large and small sizes and will be selling them and including a free butterfly earring pattern in each kit.

Orsi has some more tatting to show, a bracelet, earrings and an anklet all in a matching pattern.
