I'm doomed
Help! Someone has cast Black Magic on me. Not once, not twice but three times! With just a mere glance, I was doomed. It all started when I was googling the net for a tatted bookmark pattern and then, lo, I was spellbound by the mere sight of it. For a few days I fought it until I could fight no more. Succumbed to it I did by hitting the "Buy" button. Gotcha!
I was referring to this book by Mary Konior known as Tatting with Visual Patterns. I bought it for just this one pattern, Black Magic. I had tatted it thrice and the last time was for an exchange organised by ShuttlesandNeedles (SNN) known as Tatted Bookmark Exchange. I just hope my partner, Angie, will fall for it.
In return, Angie has tatted me two bookmarks. The green one known as The Crazy-Daisy-Eight Split Ring is meant for this exchange. The variegated one known as The Honey Comb Split Ring is a bonus. Split ring was a technique she learnt from Faizon, our sifu, at our last meet-up in February 2007 and she has put them to practise as evidenced from the pic below. It sure is hard to select which one I like better for I like both and I'm grinning from ear to ear as I've gotten two bookmarks in exchange for one.

Hi June,
Now you and Angie can fight for 1st place of best student by Cikgu Faizon!
Hi June!
How I admire your tatting! I gave it a try a few times and just couldn't get the hang of it. I'm trying to convince my oldest dd to learn so she can supply me with trim for the smocked dresses I like to sew now and then, lol!
