Bellaluna is famous!

Well sort of. I just recently received a letter from Tatdlace telling me about an article she was approached for, and she included my Bellaluna as an example of tatting. The article is here..

Thanks Sharon!
And don't forget the NAMING OF BABY BROTHER BAT contest ends in just 4 days..  so submit a name, any name, to get in the contest.
I have chosen a name, to be honest, so I will do a random pick to find the winner. But, you MUST submit a name (even if it is your own!)

I also was the lucky recipient of some of Yarnplayers thread. She had some she wasn't happy with, and had a giveaway.. and I won 2 skeins of Stardate!  It is really beautiful, even though she wasn't happy with how it turned out, I certainly am! Thanks Marilee!!!

Tiara treats

I am in a Princess Bride swap and I made my swap partner this tiara. I modeled it after one I saw on Tattyhead's blog. 
Then, I decided to make another, so I made this one up.

They are both black, with what I call dragon beads.  The beads are sort of like a Japanese beetle in color, you know, how they are almost a different color if you turn it? They are blue/black/green/goldish..

You can see where the beads are in the first one, in the second one, there is a bead inside each ring.

Hope my spoilee likes it!

Hey only two weeks left in the name the baby bat contest... lets' see some more entries!
