Here's are some finished projects and beginning another Tischband

I finished this little guy a while ago.
I've been working with size 40 so much lately that it seems working in 80 has gotten easier. So I've started a pineapple doily (not my own pattern- it's written out and I've already found mistakes in the pattern, so I'm making a diagram of the pattern as I go along, fixing those mistakes)


In this last Handy Hands newsletter there was a free handkerchief, so I immediately started working on an edging (pattern from same newsletter).

I pretty much hate pink, so this is going to mom (she loves pink).

I'm also starting another Tischband, different colors this time and in size 40 instead of 20. We'll see how this goes.

Tischband Finished

For next time, I'll do one less round on the flowers like others have suggested.

 Oh boy.

It certainly flattened after ironing, but it's still a little wonky.

Tischband Almost Finished


On the last leaf and I've run out of thread! I literally only have the last 7 chains (two joins) to do and the shuttle is empty. I don't want to refill the shuttle just to finish the little bit left, so that means finger tatting. I'm ok with that...it can be a bit of a pain if you have a  lot of thread though. Oh well.

I've seen that others have the same problem I'm going to have when I do the last two joins, in the the piece won't be laying flat. I'm hoping a hot steamy iron will take care of that.

I think I'm going to leave this piece at this size, starch it and have a little coaster. It's the perfect size for a coaster.

I won!

Jess over at Tat-licious had a give-away of some of her HDT. I received a package full of lovelies the other day. 
 Awesome!
 Robots! =D
Beautiful HDT! The pic doesn't do the colors justice, they look so much richer in person. From back to front: Rustic Cranberry, Pink Western, Chocolate Romance. The pink in Rustic Cranberry is REALLY PINK! Thanks Jess!
If you like HDT you can find her's here.
