Handfuls This Week

I've been working on quite a few things this week. Been keeping awake almost every night to finish the items. You see, I simply can't rest until I have completed what I have in my hands. Is that good or bad?
First up... this heart motif by Martha Ess – Two Hearts as One. It's gorgeous. I would love to tat the one with the 2 hearts instead of just one of them, but I got stuck with the intertwinning of the rings part from R2.

Next, I tatted Lyn Morton's Romance Pendant again. This time it's with marine blue 4-mm Swaroski cystals with Flora #20. Maybe the choice of crystals wasn't quite right. They feel too large and heavy on this motif. What do you think? My first attempt is here. 

I've also worked on beading a few cabochons. Finished one pendant this morning at four. It's for a personal exchange with a dear friend. I think she'll like it. It's my own pattern.

Sorry about the colours. They really didn't turn out right. The actual piece is way more gorgeous. Another piece is being done. I plan to complete it end of the day.

Have a great weekend. XOXO

Tatted Jewellery and Some Cards

Found Lyn Morton's Tatting Jewellery in the library a couple of weeks back but never picked up on tatting anything from it. Just busy drooling over the pictures. Finally put some energy into tatting something from the book tonight. I love tatted pendants and tatting pendants. :)

Romance Pendant

Over the weekend, tried out some watercolour pencils I got while shopping with Ellen one week earlier. We went to the bookstore and craft supplies shop. What else can be more fun?

So, I drew and coloured some ATCs for a swap I'm participating in. The theme is Tarot Cards. I love the results. And they are so easy to use.
