Decorative Boards

Boards have become one of my favorite ways to communicate with people on a large scale. I use them for all sorts of reasons, but at this stage in my life, mostly for pleasure. I made a decorative board last year to start a business selling my needle art works.

Overall, I was pleased with my attempts. There is a place to hang cards, doilies, or tatting objects. I also left room for business cards and a display area to a fix items to the board. Below are close ups of the individual areas on the board for closer observation.

These are my hanging doilies and tatted crosses.

These are my homemade cards either made by rubber stamping or decorated with my tatted flowers and objects. I am making a decorative board with my tatting only and will post it at a later date.

Happy tatting and Good Day to You!!!

Quilting Projects

My daughter and I wanted to sew a few projects. We are working on our project list which somehow has become rather long. Here are a few pictures of our first projects. We saw this bag in a Quilting shop close to out home. They found the pattern in a quilting magazine. The pattern is called The Big Bag Theory. My purse is 4 squares wide by 4 squares tall on both sides. It is the same size as the pattern calls for. It is rather big, but a wonderful bag to carry my projects in.


My daughter was able to have one made just from the scraps left over from mine. I did make hers smaller though. Hope you enjoy!

Learning

Trying to learn something new takes time and effort. Two things I am short on these days. I am going to keep adding new posts occasionally.

Teaching

I am teaching myself how to blog. Have patience with me as I start to post pictures and such.
