It has received the kid treatment and been washed at bit and has held up well.<br /><br />I don't think I will ever willingly carpool! I ALWAYS have something with me to work on and I am so bummed when I get to school or a lesson too late to pull it out to work on. Thank goodness traffic at the middle school is usually a snarled mess!<br /><br />Thanks for saying "Hi!"<br />Annsewmuchfun4https://www.blogger.com/profile/09841972052152898574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040635923924359534.post-64606366366135938282009-07-10T08:01:50.963-05:002009-07-10T08:01:50.963-05:00Hi Ann,

I love how there are special things just for your mom. Your tatting is perfect. That's one craft I've never tried. You are so like me doing things in the car. Before my girls drove themselves to dance, I always sewed my hexagons in the car waiting for them to come out!<br />~Karen~Karen from Sew Many Ways...https://www.blogger.com/profile/05258367030113873230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040635923924359534.post-62534899432173338192009-07-07T08:18:54.984-05:002009-07-07T08:18:54.984-05:00It is great, isn't it?

It was a matter of minutes and I was up and running. I had always been intimidated by split rings before. I'm making a simple heart with split rings right now - the rings have been no problem, but running out of thread... At least I have gotten good enough to laugh and start over!<br />Annsewmuchfun4https://www.blogger.com/profile/09841972052152898574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040635923924359534.post-36307787377360813202009-07-05T23:54:23.453-05:002009-07-05T23:54:23.453-05:00Hi Ann,

There is a wonderful community of blogging tatters who are generous with their ideas and knowledge. It's an inexpensive hobby to try if you decide you would like to give it a whirl!<br />Annsewmuchfun4https://www.blogger.com/profile/09841972052152898574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040635923924359534.post-64734244825589065652009-07-01T15:27:54.378-05:002009-07-01T15:27:54.378-05:00I adore this bag -- the combination of the very ge...I adore this bag -- the combination of the very geometric quilt block with the whimsy of the crazy stitches is just beautiful. The little tatting motifs add the perfect touch.
