I'm so pleased with the results!

| 1st effort- Herbal Garden Lizbeth #20 MOTIF #25! |

| Blue Ice for my other daughter |
Both girls said they were too big for earrings so #1 is going to be a pendant and tomorrow I'll show you what #2 asked for.
Minnesota is truly the land of extremes- very cold winters but oh, the summers! My lovely tatting spot (the patio) is so wonderful right now and the hibiscus has gone crazy.
And in a surprise move, my wonderful husband took me to get more plants and we found jasmine for only $10. It will never survive the winter and usually it's so outrageously expensive, I can only sniff it at the garden shop.
Lovely dream catcher.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely spot to tat,I hope your jasmine will survive they do survive our winters in the UK.

I would have to bring it inside and keep it in the bathroom- haha!
Deletewhat beautiful dream catchers and like both colors too and the flowers are always fun to see!
ReplyDeleteI love your dreamcatcher earrings Michelle! I had a pair as a gift and they were "nabbed" by my daughter!! Didn't get to wear them so I've been meaning to make myself a pair ever since. Yours have turned out really great.
ReplyDeleteThank you- you should make some, they're much easier than I thought. I used your Marie Smith method of split chain to cover the ring and it went very fast.
DeleteHey, I've just noticed you're over half way on your Quatrain runner!! Yeah!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the smell of jasmine made the dream catchers extra special!
ReplyDeleteJasmine-scented dreamcatchers! Nice ring to it!
DeleteI am fascinated by Sue's dream catchers! I have all the supplies, but that's as far as I've gotten. Maybe I should get together with either you or Sue for some hands-on training!
ReplyDeleteYou bet! I'd love to do that!!
DeleteYou did an awesome job on both!!! I love the colors too!!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I have made them smaller using rings like the ones that Jon Yusoff uses for her tatting on rings. Younger girls prefer those. :) Here's a link to show the smaller ones next to the larger ones: http://hiskid66.blogspot.com/2013/07/size-comparison-of-dream-catcher.html
What did you do for the feathers? Your little ones look wonderful, I just can't tell about the feathers.
DeleteOh Michelle, I forgot about those tiny feather charms. I got those at Hobby Lobby(or possibly Michael's) They come on a long chain. I will post a picture for you on my blog. They are smaller than the others. Hope that helps!!!! :)
