A Tatted bookmark from Karey Solomon's book 'Tatting with Buttons'. I still would like to see a tail on this one, but I have to figure something out yet without ruining the looks of the finish.

NO. 8....
I just picked these up from the internet. Then I wanted to do some on my own or from my book My friends just love them. I came home empty handed and now I start over...
No. 7...
This pattern came from L. Trumble, This 'n' Tat. I used Lizbeth size 20, called Linen - Med. I don't know what it was, but when I saw this one, I just had to tat it. I spayed a button gold, but it just didn't match up with the thread.
No. 6....
I was busy tatting while on vacation, so I could give my friends a little gift before I left. They all got two for there refrigerators. I had put magnets on the back.
This was the second one that I designed myself. Good thing I had a place close by to buy buttons.

This was actually the second one that I had made. Another one from the Karey Solomon book, 'Tatting with Buttons'. January 23rd, 2013.
No. 4...
Just had to put this one to. I actually designed this one myself, but in the end, I felt like there was something missing....you judge it! I made this one while on vacation, and didn't stiffen it or anything. I gave it away to a friend of mine. Some of her walls are red...
No. 3...
I should have started with these first. They were the first ones I had made and I made a mistake on the first one, so I did it over. These are also from the book 'Tatting with Buttons' by Karey Solomon. Used Lizbeth thread size 20.
No. 2....
Here is another sample of my tatting with buttons. This pattern is from Debi Pennington. I used Lizbeth Size 40, #127 Butterfly Breeze.

I have started tatting with buttons, and have quite a few to show you. I used HDT which I got from http://www.etsy.com/shop/yarnplayer . Made using size 40 thread. The pattern is from "Tatting with Buttons" by Karey Solomon. I turned this one into a necklace, and got a lot of compliments on it.
