ALL ABOARD!
Yes, you have all guessed it by now. A whimsical magical train inspired by my beautiful sweet 2 yr old daughter. Trains are her favorite right now, so I designed it for her and when she said, "That's really cool mom". I decided to share it with you. Hopefully in time for Christmas.
I believe the first to guess correctly was our very clever poet Miss Sarah! I very much enjoyed her posts, as well as everyone's. It was just as much fun for me to watch your progress, so much so that I may have to do another one next Fall. We will see...
I am so happy that everyone has enjoyed this TIAS. I do believe it turned out to be a smashing success, all because of you guys! I hope many of you learned a new trick or two.
A special thank you to our Jane for dreaming up the concept years ago. I am looking forward to her TIAS coming in January I believe.
I will keep the TIAS community blog open indefinitely so that everyone has a chance to share their work as they get caught up.
Now for the BONUS I promised you. I was going to email it out individually as you faithfully proved your completion. However, due to my sheer exhaustion lately, we will have to go with the honor system. Here it is friends, you earned it!

Thank you so much. My grandsons, ages 2 and 4 also love trains. I'll probably be making two more in their favorite colors, blue and green, for Christmas! Thank you for the great tat along, I'm going to miss looking for it each day!
It was a super fun TIAS. Piccadilly Express is a cute pattern and I am going to incorporate it into my nephew's quilt. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much Sherry, it was fun, it was informative, and very easy to follow, as you saw, there were lot's of us that had never tried an onion ring. That was my very first TIAS, and now I can not wait for the next one. Again thank you for my first TIAS experience.

This is a great little train. I finally got my bicycle bent into the correct shape and it transformed into the cutest little steam engine! My niece wants me to make the whole train for her -- and I think I will. Thanks, Sherry. This has been fun!
What a special bonus gift! A perfect finishing touch! There will be lots of smiles on little ones' faces this year, and adults' too! So many places for this cute choo-choo - clothing, in frames, on quilt squares, blankets, pillows, pillow cases, etc! Thank you so much for this marvelous whimsical pattern!
Sherry, you are da' bomb.
I finished mine late yesterday but have not been able to take the time to post it. Thank you for the fun and I will have to add the cars too.
Thank you so much for the TIAS! Such fun. Also look forward to get started on the Bonus patterns!
Sherry, this has been great fun, and the pattern is lovely.
Many thanks for your time, effort and generosity in sharing this with us all.
Will you be posting the whole pattern together now? I confess I didn't do the TIAS. I'm getting Christmas decorations made for market. But I would love to do the cute train.
Thanks for the wonderful TIAS. I figured it was a train after day 10. my son who is 6 loves it. Thanks for the bonus pattern! I love the add on.
Sherry, thank you for the challenge of my first TIAS. I have enjoyed every moment and learnt new techniques along the way. The express train is a lovely motif and has been admired by my non tatting friends. Can't wait to do another tat along. Thank you for the bonus pattern.
This was the first one I have ever done, and I really enjoyed it. Such a wonderful pattern. I want to thank you for your time, effort, and experience.
What a lovely treat this fall! I know the exact sweatshirt the "bonus" will be featured on! but not before I get all the first part done. Yes I downloaded it and will work the rest of the pattern before I continue with it. A big Thank you!!
