Previously I'd mentioned that I was helping my friend, Peg learn to tat. This week something really good happened for me (more on that later), and Peg gave me a congratulations card with some of her tatting on it. I asked permission to show it to you, and she agreed. Although I may have done it anyway if she'd have said no, because I'm very proud of her.
I'm not sure of the pattern, but it is pink on a cream card. I couldn't get the card to scan nicely, so I cropped the heart out of the picture to show you.
A heart made in size 80 thread, are you kidding me, Peg? Size 80! That's awesome. Way to go, Girlfriend, I'm super proud of you.
Have a great day everyone.
Until next time,
Bonnie
P.S.I was folding laundry and thought oh I've got to go back to my poswt and add that to my it, 10 minutes later I have no idea what it was.... hummm.
P.S.S. about a hour later, I remembered. Okay so when I add tatting to the front of a card I sew it on using the same color thread and knot the ends together. Peg sewed hers on but tied it in a bow on the back for easy removal which I think is a great idea so I had to share it.

Peg did a marvelous job! Congratulations!
You must be a great teacher. Congratulations to Peg!
A beautiful heart! congrat to Peg(who needs a blog, always fun to look back at tatting progress)
You know, it looks like freebie pattern by Lizbeth -- a tatted heart and a crochet heart (on one sheet). If Peg tatted it, I recall B.Foster adapted the pattern from a vintage magazine pattern. It is beautiful ; )

Beautiful heart and nice idea to tie it on at the back.
