Here is my version of Dianna Stevens Heirloom Brooch. I used size 20 Manuela thread. For the directions to make this cute brooch check out Dianna's page.
This curved edging is from Needle Tatting With Style, Book 1 by Barbara Foster. I entered this in the 1998 county fair and got a blue ribbon.
This is my very first doily, I entered it in the 1998 county fair and got a blue ribbon.. The pattern is from the book, A New Twist on Tatting
Here is a simple but pretty edging.  I have seen this pattern in many different pattern books.  My idea is to edge a hankie with this piece of lace. I entered this in the 2000 county fair and was pleased to get a blue ribbon.
I found the pattern for this cute little beaded snowflake in the March/April 1996 issue of Crafting Traditions.  It was entered in the 2000 county fair and received a blue ribbon in its class.
I tatted this hankie from the pattern in the Summer 2000 issue of Old-Time Crochet. It was made for my niece's best friend's wedding. It was her "something borrowed" so I could enter it in the county fair. I hope she will be surprised when she gets it for Christmas. :-)
Here is my 2000 Colorado State Fair doily. The pattern is from Traditional Tatting Patterns Edited by Rita Weise. I was totally blown away when I found out it took the blue ribbon in it's class and also received Best of Show in the lace catagory from the Rocky Mountain Lace Guild. Friend and fellow tatter Debbie Arnold took the picture for me. :-) Thanks Deb!

This cute card was designed and the butterfly was tatted by  11 year old Chelsea. My contribution? Some of the little flowers at the bottom. :-)
