The fall is a beautiful time of the year in Northern Illinois. Before the grey snow, ice and bare trees the Midwest dazzles us with the beautiful colors of the fall leaves. There are cooler temps and fewer misquotes so you can go for a walk and actually enjoy it! It is also the time of the year for the birthdays of two super stars in my book, Jane Eborall and my daughter-Becki! Surprisingly they are a day apart! (OK there are a few years difference in their ages too- lol)
Happy birthday to all the super stars born in October!
Then there is my tatting round robin. I finished my round, blocked it and have it ready for the next person.
I seem to have a theme with rings and chains. lol. But I think it works and it sets a good foundation for the last two rounds. I think I see doilies more traditional so this has been good for me. I need to learn to think outside the box!
Now I know Yarnplayer has mentioned her new book available from Annie's Attic, well they have it on the web site as coming soon ! I am excited and it does look like a great book to add to my tatting collection,the web site ishere. Check it out! Anyone who has met Marilee or done any of her patterns knows her jewelry is unique and beautiful! Her patterns can be a challenge sometimes, but the result is worth it!
Well happy birthday Jane and happy birthday tomorrow Becki! :)

Thank you, Sue Anna. I'm glad you pointed out that there were a lot of years between Becki and I or she'd have been upset!!!! She doesn't want to be 68 for a good many years yet!!!!
LOVE the round robin - so pretty.
Please wish Becki a happy birthday for me! I can hardly wait for Marilee's new book. I think we should have a tatting get-together so that she can autograph them for us!
You were celebrating birthdays ( happy wishes from me too!) and I was celebrating wedding anniversaries of my kids. A good time of year for all celebrations!
