OK, those who know me or read this blog will probably say I'm already daft!!
I've been making roly poly bags and pouches during the daytime for weeks now (not every day as the Hawthorne and other jobs 'got in the way') and then tatting in the evening. Well, you know that as I've been blogging what I've been doing!!!
As I sew then I often think about the tatting part of the day and how to resolve 'problems'. So, by the time we've had our main meal and I've settled down in tat corner it's usually about seven o'clock. I'm raring to go with tatting by then and have a clear idea of how progress should continue.
So, why, oh why doesn't brain cell # 3 'click in' until nearly nine o'clock?
Again I tried another couple of versions of the tree yesterday evening and at 9 (ish) decided that I'd just change the start of it and give it 'one last fling'.
Below is that final 'fling' and I think this is going to work!!! I can see that the bead count and stitch count on the bottom chains need 'tweaking' and I'll have to mount the trunk onto something to hide the pin but I think it's going to be a winner!!! I didn't add the star on this one or finish it off. I think I'll add a large bead to the bottom for the tree base tying off the ends below.

It looks to me like brain cell #3 is working. Very nice Christmas Tree, Jane.
The tree is becoming more and more interesting. Maybe I need to stay up later and see if my brain cells work better!
