That's me with my tiny tatted Dalek meeting a big Dalek at the Maker FaireMilwaukee. We're all beaming with excitement! |
Close-up of the tatted lace Dalek. (A Dalek is a character from the television series Doctor Who.) Yes, this one is my original tatting design. No pattern......just...no. Exterminate! ☺☺☺ Seriously, I used the techniques of a bead inside a ring and block tatting. I made the gun and sucker arm from wire and a saucer bead. The lights, eye stalk, and globes are beads. |
Here I am with my tatting display at Maker Faire Milwaukee. Many people stopped to ask questions and watch me demonstrate shuttle tatting. I gave single ring tatted butterflies away to the children. |
There were many astounding science exhibits. I was able to leave my tatting booth long enough to see this Tesla coil in action. |
I don't know the story behind these jelly fish lights, but they were impressive with their size, changing colors and twinkling! |
