Another commission

I was sitting at the new Thursday group last week and a friend asked if I could make a pair of spider earrings for her daughter!!!

When I got home I decided to look and see if I'd done spiders before and lo and behold there was one that Terry and I had worked on 8 years ago. Here's the link.

Well I decided that that one wasn't going to be an easy tat and I wanted something a bit more 'blingy' so BC3 was brought out of the cupboard and we came up with this - see below.

Now this has been a bit of a challenge even though it's a lot easier to work than the other one. Why? Well somebody told me that it's Halloween next week and I thought somebody somewhere may like to play with it before then and time is running out!!!

It will be available tomorrow when I've done a final test tat.  I do need a pair for myself now!!!

  1. Great earrings. At one time I made a lot of your spiders with floating beads.

  5. The recipient will be delighted! It's as if you wave a magic wand and tatted items appear! If someone asked me to make something (which I never encourage), they'd be waiting a long time! I'm sure you have your own pair done already!

  6. Yes, Kathy and all ready to wear tomorrow!!!! Sometimes things take ages and ages to design but this time I remembered the Tatbead family and used that 'technique' to form the legs so it was pretty straightforward. In fact I 'stole' the original spider pattern too and used that as the base!!! In fact you could say I cheated!!!!
