Finally, Round 6! Wait.....Ooops

I finally made it to round 6 on Renuleks Summer Napkin. But I noticed yesterday, there's a boo boo with my Napkin. Two to be exact lol. We're just going to call them imperfect-perfect pieces lol.

If you'd look closely, I added a ring where there was suppose to be a chain. Well I decided to make it look the same way on the other side lol. It was a accidental purpose mistake. My mom use to say "as long as there's a matching pair it'll be Ok". So now, the other side look the same with an extra ring.

Now, the extra ring I can fix. But how do you fix this problem? Not sure how I did that, but I somehow cut the knot holding that closed section together. I really like the color of this napkin but if I can't find a way to fix this, i'll have to redo it. This is my favorite thread Lizbeth #124 sz 20. Once this napkin is finished, I plan to drape it across my console table that's dedicated in memory of my mother. 

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Name Change

I recently changed the name of my blog, from Simplee Lau'Me Cards to Simplee Lau'me: My Adventures in Tatting. Though, I'm still a card maker, I find a new joy in Tatting Lace. For the new visitors of my blog I didn't want them to be confused by the name saying one thing but showing something different. I thank all of you who've been following me and I do promise to do my best to post at least once a week if nothing else. You guys are the best.

Update Coming Soon To My Blog

Hello everyone. I know I've not been active in keeping my blog up todate for some time now but I'm actively working on changing that. Since my hobby has shifted from paper to thread, I feel that my blog should as well. The name will stay the same minus one word. I thank everyone whose been following me. It's a great feeling to know that others are seeing your work and to hear their comments on it. You all have no idea how it makes me feel when I read them. Thanks so much for them.

 I'm somewhat of a scatter brain so, I forget to post more often than not, but I'm gong to work at posting more often even if it's just to say that the weather here in Paris, TX is hotter than a double boiler of hot syrup. lol . So I thought I'd get started today. These are doilies that I've finished or are still in progress of being completed. Enjoy!!

 

This is the Rose Roger's Round Robin Doily. It has 6 rounds (however I missed a round) it looks so delicate and lacy. Can't wait til I get it blocked and flat. I'm tatting this doily in HH Lizbeth sz 20 #657 Ocean Turquoise Dk. I found this pattern on www.georgiaseitz.com 

This next doily is the Renulek Summer Napkin 2014. I'm on round 5 and tatting in HH Lizbeth Spring Garden # 124 sz 20. I'm really enjoying working on the Renulek Napkins. For more of her work go to www.renulek.blogspot.com. She has several other doilies and eggs patterns.

Here is another Renulek Napkin. It's the Spring Napkin 2014. This doily is being tatted in sz 20 HH Lizbeth Seagreen Lt. #686; Ecru #603 and Antique Violet Med #640

 The Clover Doily by Eileen Stafford. I got the pattern from www.webarchive.org It has 9 rows (I stopped at row 8) I think i should finish the doily. I thought I would like it without the final row but I think it needs it. This doily is tatted in sz 20 thread by HH Lizbeth # 691 Mocha Brown Med.; #693 Linen Med, #684 Leaf Green Med, #690 Mocha Brown Lt., #604 Ecru

Here's a doily that i found the pattern on www.Pinterest.com It's a Russian pattern so I'm not sure of the title but I tatted it in HH Lizbeth sz #20 Leaf Green Medium #684.

This last one is the Amusement Doily by Celtess. It's tatted in sz 20 Lizbeth #694 Harvest Orange; #695 Bright Orange; #601 White. And #603 Ecru and #633 Purple Dk.

I'm really enjoying my new hobby. Don't get me wrong, I will always love paper crafting and card making. But I feel more at ease when I'm tatting. I feel relaxed and calm. Thanks to all of my friends who comment and follow me here and on Facebook. you guys are the best.
