Bellaluna on her perch

Ok, she is OFFICALLY finished now. I just finished making her perch and attaching her to it.  I bought the flat of wood at Wal-mart, and I got the branch off of my dying apple tree.  I put a washer and screw from the bottom up through the top and through the branch. I stained it, and varnished it, and, by golly, it is just like I imagined it would look!  Cross your fingers for me and Bellaluna, for we must enter the fair on Thursday, and wait until Sunday to see if the judges like her.

Beyond incredible! There's no way you and Bellaluna can't win. She is probably the most awesome piece of tatting I have ever seen.

I love your Bellaluna. I covet her. Good luck with the judges.

How cool is this? Way cool. And, so timely ~ beling "Bella" and all!
With the vampire craze sweeping the young somethings AND some of the moms? (what is THAT?) Personally, I'm not into the idea of a vampire lover ~ but what ever. I guess I'm in the werewolf camp..LOL

Bella will blow them out of the saddle (to mix a metaphor) I can just see a bronk ridin' Bella! I have a VERY strange mind.

Break a leg at your debut, Bella!

If Bellaluna doesn't win a best in show, those judges need to have their eyes examined! She is amazing.

Thanks everyone! I just took Bellaluna to the fair this evening. It was hard to leave her! There was an older lady there that kept staring at her, and when I said she was tatted, her eyes about bugged out! Then she REALLY started looking. I will find out Sunday how she did.. so until then..

I love your little bat. My granddaughter did mention that Bellaluna is suppose to be a unicorn, not a bat. She still likes him and hopes she can have one like him some day.
