First of Many Ice Drops

Ice Drops are a fun little thing to tat!

First Completed Ice Drop

They are formed around a "gem" that you can find in hobby stores or sometimes in the area of the aquariums in a pet store.

Tatted Ice Drop

Pretty little doodads with little purpose, they are sometimes done as Christmas tree ornaments, package decorations, back pack charms and so forth.

Did I mention that they are fun to tat? For that reason alone you might be seeing many more of these.

Marlene, I love your tatting. It almost makes me want to learn. But, I have too many crafts to do without adding another. I love your necklace and the ice drop is beautiful too.

Thanks PJ, dynnamae, and Gene.

Dynamae I have too many crafts too, when I concentrate on one I am neglected several others! This one reached out an grabbed me though. I was defenseless. The problem with finding learning new crafts so enthralling is that -- well you tend to collect not only hobbies but a whole lot of equipment and supplies as well. At least equipment doesn't take up a lot of room and some of my weaving threads work well for tatting too.

Thank you God's Kid. The thread colours were great so I coordinated the gem and the ribbon with that.
