No go - - nuntium ducentesimum octogesimum quartum

Craft fairs.  sigh.

Barely a glance at the messy flowers.  No interest in the dreamcatchers.  But I did sell a few things.  I made the table fee anyway.

And the musicians were great!

Then we went to my family's home in ND.  I got in some tatting in the car.  I made three anklets for the younger daughter (no picture, they were out of my hands before I knew it).

What's next?

Messy flowers - nuntium ducentesimum octogesimum quartum

Here's my last little bit of "panic" tatting.  I have this lovely old  rayon crochet which is super shiny.  I wouldn't use it for anything because it "fights" a it as you tat but I made up these "messy" flowers for barrettes.  Who knows if anyone will like them?  They really go against my grain.  I love symmetry and order (What Latin teacher doesn't?) and this really flies in the face of that.

I'm interested to see if anyone even picks one up!

By the by, thank you for your positive comments- I've been away from blogging so long I wasn't sure anyone would see my posts.  It's so nice to have encouragement (my family does a great job but they're always nice...)
