Here's day 4 and 5 of Jane's TIAS. I still don't have the slightest idea but I'm having a great time doing it.

| day 5 |
On the way to ND, I tried this bookmark which was very interesting and fun once I decided to follow Kersti's pattern instead of trying it my own way.

In North Dakota, we stayed with my parents who live near a coulee and have tons of pheasants in the back yard.
I got more tatting done today on the way back but we got home late and for some reason riding in the car for 400 miles is exhausting. More later this week, I think.
Latin for today: autoraeda septem horas vecti sumus = We rode in the car for 7 hours.
Hi and bye, hope you enjoyed your visit to ND during our first main winter weather of the year. according to the weatherman during the news tonight. this year we have 10" of snow, as of this date last year we had 60".
ReplyDeleteWell, it was an emergency visit to see my grandpa. He passed away about an hour after we got there.
DeleteCar trips wear me out as well.
ReplyDeleteI have a hard time tatting in the car. Maybe my inner ear is just more sensitive than yours. Does it not make you car sick?
It depends on if my tummy is full or not. If not, I can't do anything, if so, I can tat or work on my computer. Crazy!
DeleteYour bookmark is lovely Michelle - what colour is it please?
ReplyDeleteIt's HDT from Anika. It's kind of blue/black. My daughter loves it and snatched up the bookmark almost before I finished hiding the ends!
DeleteFollow a pattern? What a novel idea! ; )
ReplyDeleteI love the way your bookmark turned out, and you're doing a great job with the T.I.A.S. I don't tat very well in the car, but I keep trying!
oh Michelle, I am so sorry.
ReplyDeleteblessings on you and your family as you deal with this.
I experience about the same when reading or tatting in the car. an empty tummy gets car sick worse then a full one. been that way since very little on. go figure..
Thank you, you are very kind. If you can spare a prayer for my grandma and my daughters, that would be great.
DeleteThat bookmark is very sharp!! I like the colors! :)
ReplyDeleteI tat in the car all the time. Your work is lovely.
ReplyDeleteSpending hours getting jostled or vibrated in the car, confined to a small space, and watching the world go by without doing anything about it, can definitely be tiring. I like long road trips, but definitely sympathize.
ReplyDeleteYou turned out a lovely bookmark, though. I really like the colors you chose, and the tatting looks perfect.
