It has been a very busy couple of weeks at work - long days followed with exhaustion-induced sleep (think comatose), and very little time for anything else.  I tatted a bit at lunchtime, though!

I may have forgotten to mention - I did have an entry in this year's South Carolina State Fair, in Columbia, SC, in October.  I won a blue ribbon for my necklace, and - shock of my life - I also won one of the Palmetto Tatters Awards!

The ribbon is for Most Innovative Tatted Design, for my necklace.  Isn't the Palmetto award ribbon beautiful?  Pam Freck did the tatted snowflake and the lettering!

Monday, it's back to work; but for now, I can work on some tatting that's been percolating in the back of my mind for a couple of weeks!  Gonna go get my shuttles RIGHT NOW!!

    I had thought I might win a blue ribbon from the State Fair, but never dreamed I might win one of the PTG awards! I was totally surprised!
