Tatted Skull Earrings

Just for fun,

and because I have been wanting to work on my tatting skills

I decided to give these a try.

I fudged a bit on parts of the instructions

but as I said they were just for fun.

There is a matching bracelet.

It requires a technique I have yet to try.

So we shall see if those appear or not this season.

Starting Early

Well kind of.

I bought this fleece last year but never had time to do anything with it in time for Christmas.

So I set it back in the closet.

I ran across it a couple of weeks ago along with directions

for an easy way to edge it.

So the first gift for Christmas 2013 is complete.

And counting...
