International lace day ( 22nd June)

 Hi,

I am late posting this but last Sunday on Facebook the lace markers around the world had an international lace day,  I did manger a small piece of tatting,  it’s was a very hot day part of the heat wave we have had in the U.K., 

The heat has really played me up this  year,  perhaps because I am ill but I have travelled and been in heatwaves very much hotter and it’s never worn me out,   The last one was in Turkey with 40 to 45c plus and 39c at night of course the heat is different in Europe to what we have in the U.K.,    this heatwave has totally washed out for a few days,

Anyway here is my little piece of tatting!  It’s a pattern from the Endrucks project that we have been working on,  the rose was reworked E42 by Daniela Galli,  I used Lizbeth thread no 20.  Some that we left on my shuttle.

I am going to make some more roses and try the larger rose pattern. 

I hope you have been enjoying the lovely weather even if it has been very hot.
