WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first three rounds of Evelyn's Doily are now up! 

For those of you who have followed the incredible saga (which, according to my oh so official records has lasted almost two years!) you can understand how entirely epic this is. Through blood, sweat, tears, and migraines, this doily, marking my early beginnings in the world of tatting, has finally come to fruition!

Getting back into the habit

Yesterday, I embroidered for the first time in what I'd say is close to about a month. 

O_O

Long time, huh? 

Honestly, I don't know why it's been so long... but I think it has something to do with a space-themed video game and, of course, getting Evelyn's Doily ready for launch.

However, I don't think I've posted much about my progress even before I sputtered out.

So, to be brief [dramatic pause]: 

And another shot:

^_^

Testing Done!

So, long story short --> I went on a trip, forgot my first practice, and started another one! 

First Practice:

Second Practice:

Luckily, I did catch some issues with the pattern, aaannnd since the charts are all done I'd say Evelyn's Doily is almost ready to go!

^_^

I know...

It's been a while since my last post, it's true.

However, I do have some up and coming news! 

Doodleplex is still on track... ish!

Almost done with the inner petals!

^_^

Butterfly boom!

I dare say it's a good amount of progress: 

^_^

All is not lost

According to my records, it has been 3 weeks since my last post.

I am proud to say that I am DONE with high school, and now am en route to college!

Yaaaaay! 

Anywho, I am also very pleased to announce that Evelyn's Doily seems to have finally been completed.

If you recall, from my last post, I was essentially agonizing over the astounding degree of lip I was getting from Evelyn's Doily. It was getting to the point that I wondered if I would ever finish. 

Well, readers, I believe that time has come: 

I didn't have to redo anything, and it lies flat!

And now I can focus on the pattern.

Mua. Ha. Ha. 

^_^

Over my next few posts, I'll get into what I've managed to work on over the past few weeks.
