Oh dear, where does the time go?? I can't believe I hadn't posted since Easter! Maybe it's because I've done very little tatting lately (standard size tatting) although I'm currently working on another large lace lamp.
In the meantime, a little beading interlude... I always enjoy making earrings and when I last visited my local bead shop, I found a few kits I fancied having a go at, also because I had some birthday gifts to make and I always like making earrings as gifts.
So here are four pairs I made, different models, different colours.

Pretty earrings, nice gifts. The tatting looks intriguing.
ReplyDeletePretty earrings! Kits are a great way to make something you like without building an enormous stash.
ReplyDeleteYes, you're right Diane! It's always dangerous when I enter a bead shop... there are now endless choices in beads!!
DeleteWhat a lovely tatting project! And if I'm not wrong, it seems the little aunt's square! Beautiful earrings!
ReplyDeleteYou're not wrong Ninetta, if you remember I checked with you and we discussed when I made my first tatted lamp a couple of years ago. The square has a slightly different stitch count (reduced a bit) so the open spaces are a bit smaller on the large lace. It's a lovely square which I like a lot! :-)
DeleteLarge lace lamp?? Another?? Can we see the first?
ReplyDeleteGreat earrings!!!
Hi Sue, haha, yes! I did make a first one, I'll try to remember to post some photos of it. :-)
DeleteBeautiful earrings, each one so unique!
ReplyDeleteThat big lace project looks really impressive! Your set-up to manage it is a good example of creative engineering.
Thank you Marilee, yes, when working at that size you really need a "third hand" so I have to improvise! :-)
DeleteWieder mal sehr schöne Ohrringe. Die Beschenkten werden sich bestimmt sehr freuen und auch gerne tragen. Auch die Farben sind sehr geschmackvoll
ReplyDeleteLiebe Grüße Joscha
Vielen Dank Johanna! :-)
