I have been tatting – a gift for a niece’s wedding.
That’s this coming weekend.
And it’s not done yet!
Okay, that’s not really a big surprise. I always seem to wait to start something and then the date I need it done is suddenly upon us. You’d think I’d learn but I haven’t yet.
The good news is it really is almost done. Sunday I did almost nothing else and made a lot of progress. The bad news is I don’t foresee a lot of tatting time open this week. I guess if I want it done I’ll find time somewhere!
How many of you read Fox’s post about her excitement with Perfect Quilter thread?
And how many of you jumped right over there where her link took you and bought some?
I did.
I haven’t been tatting in small thread lately so I only bought four colors and I haven’t had time to even try any of them out yet! But I have these by my chair to entice and encourage me to get this gift done.
Hi Wanda!
Glad to see I have been such an effective enabler! Diane actually now has 17 spools of this stuff!!!
I am eagerly awaiting my much more modest order – can’t wait for it to arrive. Pondering if I should have ordered ALL the colours!
Happy Tatting,
Fox : ))
I am planning to run down and buy some quilting thread, I checked out the colors and got overwhelmed because I not sure what I gonna make and do next, everyone had such nice things and patterns I just don't know where to begin
Look forward to seeing your wedding gift.
I have been hearing so much about this thread, I will have to google to find who sells.

I may be working with quilting thread in the near future (hanging out with some quilters) and look forward to trying it. Can't wait to see what you make of it!
Ah! You showed so much more restraint than I did. Fox is quite the enabler!
I learned from the best of them, Diane!!!
Fox : ))
Hoping to see a photo of the fruits of your labors, Wanda. It is sure to be breathtakingly beautiful.
I, sadly, restrained my impulses after reading Fox's post about the Perfect Quilter thread. Now I has a sad!
Wondering how Perfect Quilter compares to King Tut quilting threads? I quite like the King Tut brand. Want to do a thread sample exchange?
The King Tut is fuzzier, not as “round” and is fuzzier in my opinion!
