Tatted Bookmark



One of my 'blog' friends asked me if I was OK, since I had not written for a while.
Bonnie, thank you....You made my day for asking!

I have been working on a pattern that was shared in tatting group last week.
A corner bookmark. The pattern called for size 30 thread, but I
am doing my first one in size 20. WOW.
The first half was time consuming, but easy enough but the second half has been the real challenge for me. You're to join as you go...ohhhh my!

I am also working on the last of 'Now I Lay' quilts...half way done!
Yahoo! I should be done with the quilting today and start
on hand sewing the binding in a few days...Easy does it...lol

See.....

Eli's quilt


Here is 'Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep' quilt #3. Help. I am not sure how to do this one. With Juniper's I cut all the squares and resewed. Malakai's I just added strips. With this one I really don 't want to cut into little square...they are too small.

Suggestions are welcomed! I have 2 yards of fabric. 44 inches wide. This would be enough for a baby quilt approximately 44 x 62.
