Instagram

Hi all.

Does anyone else love Instagram? As a visual person I absolutely adore it! I've lost count of how many fantastic artists and makers I've found on there.

Feel free to follow me @tataniarosa

I'm currently working my way through my own challenge inspired by The 100 Day Project: #100DaysofWIPsChallenge for work in progress pieces. I've just reached Day 44.

I've also started running a Follow Friday each week to promote yourself and find other creative people.

I look forward to seeing you on there,

I'm Back!

Hi all. 

I'm back from a blogging break with a fresh look. The background is my 'Rose Garden' digital artwork, available on Redbubble, Society6 and Zazzle.

I've currently working on an exciting project but that's for another time 😉.

Yet More Hand Dyed Thread

Good evening all. I hope the weather is nice where you are. It's been hot here but I must admit it would be nice if it cooled down a bit as it is difficult to work in this heat.

I don't have much to share this evening apart from an update on my hand dyed thread. On Thursday I painted some more size 20 thread in new colours. I seem to be painting this size more than any other at the moment; I suppose it's because I love tatting with this thickness. Do you have a favourite thread thickness? I'm hoping to paint more sizes soon to add to the 20 and 10.

So the skeins have now dried and been twisted up. I wasn't sure how they would turn out and even though they are a tad more muted that I was hoping, I still think they look great. Keep an eye on my Instagram page for a sneak peek soon and, once I've finished working on some large orders, I'll photograph and list them on Etsy.

Have a nice day,

More Hand Dyed Thread

Hi all.

Here's my latest hand dyed thread:

This one is called 'Bubblegum Violets' and is available in size 10 cotton thread on Etsy. I've also created it in size 20 and will have that one listed soon. I really love this colour combination.

I'm currently photographing my new skeins, including this tropical inspired one:

I hope to list a couple by Friday. Can't wait to show you all!

Have a nice day / evening.
