Whoopeeeee

I finally got the six little roly poly tat bags finished yesterday. I'm really pleased with them too. I got to try mine out on Wednesday evening as I waited for the Jodi Picoult reading to start. They work really well. What I think is best about them is their size and the fact that you've got the removeable handle too. Hope Green gave me a tiny specs case when we were in SC last year and that holds both shuttles which are quickly pushed into it and then that goes into the bag.
I will get round to popping the bags in my Etsy shop when I've got a little more of the TIAS completed. I now face the problem of parting with them! I like each one and when this happens it's a wrench to let them go - but I will!!!!
I worked on the TIAS yesterday evening and today I will do the alterations and drawings to go with those changes.

They look really nicely done. Is that a wrist strap I see there? Great idea.
Thanks for commenting on my site.

Thanks for your comment too, Linda. The strap is detachable so that when you throw the bag into your handbag you can take it off and put it inside!! Also it will fit onto a belt or the wrist so that the ball can stay in it while you work. Years of 'refining' portable tatting has got me to this design!!!!

They look adorable. I like rhe matching handle instead of a different one that you were thinking about. So pretty.

They are very pretty and I can imagine very serviceable. I know it will be hard to part with them.

Sad to say, I don't know how to do tatting, but I like to admire other people's work. Keep up the good work!
