ATC Tats

 This week I've been getting the hang of double stitches and picots and decided to put a few of my practice tats on an atc.
 They are not even as my tension needs work but I was so glad that I at LONG LAST figured out how to tat a little piece.  I'll keep working at it that's for sure.  Fox from Tatology recommended 2 tatting websites that have some needle tatting patterns:  Welcome to Needle Tatting  and InTatters.  Thank you Fox!  I continued this week to work on my iris as well.  Really hope to get that last petal done this week!!
 Another one of my amaryllis bulbs came into bloom. That's the 3rd one this month :)
 I have tried time and time again to keep something nice on top of this coffee table in the living room but this picture shows the culprit who keeps knocking things off. Momo Stinker Cat strikes again ;)

    Ooooh, tatting. I so enjoyed doing it, but it fell by the wayside. Your iris is gorgeous. And just be thankful your cat doesn't bite your plants or rub them to death!

    Your iris is coming along beautifully, and I love the pic of Momo cat claiming her territory. I'm waiting for my amaryllis to bloom. Yours is so pretty.

    Your iris is coming along nicely. I've never done tatting, perhaps I should put that on my to do list.

    Hi Jenny, I like your tatting and the colourful stitches. I also started withtatting by internet - great interest of mine. So thank you for the link for tatting - I joined already because I am keen fo learn new patterns (needle tatting). A friend brought me long needles from Australia!! It is so unknown in Germany, the needle method.
