What the problem is?!?

My name is Annie and I have Startitis and finishphobia.  I LOVE to start a pattern I just MUST start and have not finished them yet because I find another pattern I must tat lol

Here is a little I have started so far...


 1, Jane's bookmark

Oh WoW!!I

Is this really me??? I won a prize??? I have NEVER won something before!!! I did not even expect to win! I am just putting myself out there to get to know tatting people and hopefully make friends!  Thank you so much Rachel!!! I cannot wait for the mailman to deliver my prize oh wow!!!!


I am sorry in saying thank you!! I have had a pounding BOOM BooM migraine!! Oh my gosh thank goodness it is almost completely gone. I guess thats what you get reading a book outside in the sun and you cannot seem to put it down!! I am reading Stephen Kings book called "Under the Dome" about half way now and it is quite tame compared to "Misery", "Pet Semetary" and "Rose Madder".


I will post some photos of my tatting as soon as I can. It is not much but I am learning after all!!!
I am watching Karen's tatting tutorials to get started and boy oh boy is she good or what!!!!!  I love her finger wiggle LOL!!  I chatted with her on a forum and mentioned about her finger wiggle, we both laughed and I still do!  I was in the library today watching her newest button and ruffle videos and started to laugh, I had some funny looks LOL


Karen you are awesome!!!

Yay!!

I have 4 followers already?! WOW! I am so happy!   I have some photos to show but hubby is home and I dont want him to see what more I have bought...just yet LOL

Remember how I said I bought some goodies from Here?  They were waiting for me when I got home from town today!! I so want to rip it open and drool, but he might growl me, so have to wait till tommorrow!

Also I have started to correspond with Jane Eboral. She is really nice! I love her patterns and they are free too!  
I am glad of that as one shuttle here in New Zealand costs from 15$ to  35$ new zealand dollars!! I am packing up and moving to America where craft is cheaper...i wish LOL

Roll on tomorrow!!

Home sweet home

*pulls up a beanbag to sit on with my cuppa tea, shuttle and thread in hand, tongue tipped side of mouth learning to tat*

Why a beanbag? well I have just moved in with my tatting shuttle and thread etc, I dont know how to decorate this yet but hopefully in time I will learn!
I am teaching myself how to tat with the help of some youtube visual tutorials that I LOVE! I am a visual person I have to see before I can learn. And of course I am so stubborn that I watch some easy then hard to learn patterns! *DOH!!*


I have ordered some goodies from overseas and of course wish they were here yesturday! I bought from a please I read so much about called Handy Hands OHH I wish my goodies would be here!

I hope to make some good tatting friends and hope to share with you my adventures as I teach myself how to tat.
