Par for the course

Photobucket
Going along with Tattycat's starfish theme, I found this photo that I took at Seaworld last year. I have many ideas for tatted sea anenomes floating in my brain, but since I don't have time to design just now I thought I'd see what you clever minds can come up with!

So I spent good 1/2 hour creating a photo teaser of the many new threads that I have dyed and am bringing to Shuttlebirds, and of course I lost it before I could save it.

Also, I am finding things I wish I would have shipped to Korea and things I wish I didn't because I still need them. Of course this was to be expected, but it is no less irritating.

Instead of re-doing the tatting thread photo teaser, I will list a few of the names of threads and let your minds run wild.

We have Marina, Icicle B2, Raspberry Mousse B2, The Rockies, Autumn Medley B2, Rainforest, Spring Poppies B2, and many more.

Shuttlebirds tatting convention is just 8 days away, and I am soooo looking forward to it. It will be a nice break from this hectic schedule. Whoo hoo!

Have fun at the convention, Sherry! Will be looking forward to hearing about it.
Too bad you lost your photo teaser; I bet it was a great one. Computers are wonderful...except when they're not.

That photo is beautiful! I can hardly wait to see how it translates into tatting.

Enjoy yourself at the convention. Definite purchase for me will be Marina - that's my sister's name and I will tat something for her.

You can also look through Christel Weidel's site: http://www.swiss-tatting.ch/1430.html She has a couple of beautiful aquatic scenes full of various creatures and such from the sea. I've ordered her patterns before and she is very quick to respond. I'm sure if you asked for a close-up photo, she would provide it and you can make sure your own designs are not the same.
