      Ah yes it is, I watched some of president Biden's inauguration on television yesterday. Actually whilst finding a place to put these new pieces I discovered some of last years tatting which I could not find before Christmas!

There are many reasons I have not kept up this blog, one being that I have to now recover the email that was originally used to set it up, so not exactly sure if any comments will be seen or recovered.  The other is that I keep up numerous facebook accounts (other groups) plus twitter and instagram so not much room in my life to blog! However, a comment from Maureen on my sister's blog has prompted me to post the dress we have each bought and how we have embellished it with a bit of tatting.

Reversable Necklace

After a long break from tatting button necklaces I have gone back to them, they are so relaxing to make and every single one is unique.  My latest one is reversible, the first picture shows the right side of the button. The second picture shows the reverse side which looks just as good. I have placed two buttons in the middle to show what they look like both sides. This necklace is, so far, my favourite. I used Karey Solomon's thread which I bought at Tat Days last year, it is called watermelon.  Although I think the colours remind me more of Summer flowers, something like these that were given to me a few weeks ago.         Two of my necklaces are in Jane's Etsy shop , although  they have to be worn to show them off to the best effect.  Now shall I start another one?!

And this is what it looked like on the evening of Remembrance Sunday.   The poppy installation has attracted wide press coverage and hundreds of visitors have come to see it and look at the ex...
