I'm back and short update

Hi All, I am back in the land of blogger.

our daughter's wedding last saturday was wonderful. pictures and story to come later.

now that I have got that behind me, I will try to get caught up on my lessons for the Design-Tat class and all the tatting emails, and the tatting blogs.

I have been asked where the link goes for my printable patterns. I use the website KeepandShare.com all you need to do is set up an account and you can post documents, or pdfs.
There maybe other websites, but this is one that I was pointed to.

I have not posted the pattern for the Trefoil Bookmark yet, I started to proof tat it, but needed to set it aside for my daughter's wedding. I will get back to it, and try to get it posted soon.

being gone for almost a week has left me a mess at work, so off to bed for me, as I have been working some over time to get caught up.

an apology

I apologize to all of you waiting for the pattern for the Trefoil bookmark.
I had said I would get it published this week. That was before I realized that I will need to be gone for 2 days.
I have an EMS conference to attend on friday and saturday. I am leaving tomorrow afternoon and haven't been able to finish the pattern and the testing.

sorry.
EMS = Emergency Medical Service I am a First Responder with our local village fire department.

TreFoil Bookmark again

well, the consensus from comments to the previous blog post and to the answers received on a tatting email group I belong to says that it is a new pattern.

you will have to give me a few days to get it written up and posted. I will want to tat some samples to be sure that I have it correct, so please be patient.

I leave tomorrow night right after work to pick up 1 grandchild and then take her with me to baby-sit 2 others. so I may not get much done on it until next week.

I will let you know when it is posted on my pattern blog.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Trefoil bookmark/Edging

I was doing some cleaning over the weekend, and came across this bookmark that I started several years ago. I was using up some thread that I had on shuttles and I remember having to figure out how many of the small rings to make to match the cloverleaves.

so I don't think that I was following a pattern.


it is all single shuttle work, there are no chains.
A single pass would make a nice edging.
If anyone can point me in the direction of a previously printed pattern, I will say thanks, if not, then I will work up the pattern and post it on my patterns blog.

Since this is several years old and not finished as I ran out of thread on the shuttles, I will not be counting this for my 25 motif challenge.
