Medallion Cross Bookmark © Wanda Salmans
I seem to have a lot of these crosses now, all just a little different from each other. I keep trying different stitch counts, looking for just the right pattern.
This cross is in Lizbeth Twirlz #404 Mermaid Lagoon. I’m not all that excited about how it looks in this thread. I also had an awful time taking a good picture of it. This is the best of the lot. Can you tell that is a piece of white printer paper behind it?
I think I finally have the pattern done to my satisfaction. I still need to tat one with this stitch count to go on the pattern page. I started one, then I lost it under my seat in the car. Up until then I thought I’d have it done today, but that was the end of working on it while we were driving. I lost a bit of tatting time so it won’t be finished as soon as I’d hoped.
Due to a couple of rainy days my kitchen didn’t get finished until Tuesday, but the construction is done! *happy dance* What this means is I now have to put things away. I have lots of cabinet and drawer space and I have no idea where I want a lot of things. We just started putting items in cabinets where we (I) think is a good idea, at least at the moment. If they don’t work there I guess we’ll rearrange. Pictures will be coming as soon as I get a chance to download them to the computer.
Through all of this mess and muddle I’ve been tatting small things like this cross. Now I need to move on to other things. Not sure if I can call them bigger and better, but different anyway.

Under the seat in the car, eh? Hmmmm….. I do hope you were not at the wheel! : ))
Hehehe! No, my husband was driving. I just couldn't reach where it fell until we stopped and got out.
The cross is lovely. I look forward to tatting it. I hope you enjoy setting up your kitchen again.
Thanks! It will be nice getting things put away.
Your cross looks great! Can't wait to see the kitchen, how exciting!
Thanks! It is exciting! Every time we get home from somewhere and go into the kitchen I still get all excited about how great it is.
beautiful I like it 🙂
Lovely cross, and colour,
Glad you have got your kitchen done, nothing worse than not having a kitchen and workmen working in it.
Look forward to seeing your pictures
