Last Pattern for Tat Days

Here's the last pattern I submitted for Tat Days 2012.

As you all may remember, the tatting community suffered a loss recently when our lovely friend Gina Brummett, the Tatting Goddess, passed away. Gina was a love, a wonderful tatter who was cheery and encouraging to all who had contact with her. So I wanted to do something to honor her.

And this is what I made - the Tatting Goddess Angel.What do you think? She's holding a shuttle, and I've attached some tatting to it in very fine metallic thread. I hope Gina would be pleased.

On home things....

I took Larry for an MRI yesterday and then to the knee guy this morning. And we got some good news! We had been told by two doctors that his injury was likely a torn ACL, which would require surgery and long rehab. Instead, we got the news that Larry dislocated his kneecap. So instead of surgery, he gets a special brace and 6 weeks of physical therapy. So much better!

A young guy with a plain cane has to decorate it!

On Tuesday night, I took Moe to the Fabulous Fox Theater to see the touring 25th anniversary production of Les Misérables. He had the best time! Moe loves the music and has had it on his mp3 player for a long time. We had terrific seats and he was so happy. The Fox is very cool. Above is a view from the balcony, showing the blue ceiling with the lights and clouds above the Moroccan turrets and windows.

While we were there, Moe kept saying to me. "Mom, have I told you how much I love you?" Aww. He's a real sweetie.

Hope you've have had some fun lately!
