Tatting bookmark #6

 I have a new favorite bookmark. This is made with Lizbeth size 20 color 184- Rainbow Splash. 

Purple Splendor tatting

 I don't know if anyone else has thought of this, but just in case it's a Duh! Moment for someone else... For small items such as earrings if they don't have beads, you could use a hair straightener for blocking purposes. I have a wet to straight one, and i just dampened one of these bookmarks and straightened it. The other one i just did dry.

I'm still trying to decide if I prefer beads or no, but I am also excited that split rings are easy now. 

This is a version of Mary Konior's Three Wishes pattern, from Tatting in Lace, but honestly I was trying to mimic Robin Perfetti's bookmark. Oh how i wish i could buy HER .pdf life would be so much simpler, and it would cost me less, this book was almost $50!
