We've had glorious weather lately - until Tuesday when it rained ALL day and went VERY cold.
This was such a shame as some lovely neighbours were celebrating their silver wedding anniversary and invited us all to join them in celebrating the event. Naturally as we're all in meltdown (lockdown) we couldn't go into their house so (as is normal in our road lately) we met in the freezing cold in the road to raise our glasses to them.
I wanted to give them something special but couldn't get out to the shops (IF any were open) so decided to do a bit of tatting - but what? Well in the afternoon I was searching through the tatting cupboard for ideas for earrings when I spotted a brass heart that I've had for years. I bought three of them and had used one for another present so remembered that this pattern would fit it.
My poor old fingers absolutely flew to get it done in time but then I hit the problem of using invisible thread to anchor it to the brass frame!!! I just hope they like it!!!
A wonderful gift!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea! I know I don't have any hearts in my stash. Something to think about!

It's beautiful! Great idea digging into your stash and coming up with something so fitting. Wonderful celebrating even in the cold!
