I have started my first project for 2010. This is a free pattern from Iris Tatting and can be found at www.iristatting.com free pattern #3. I am using Coats and Clark opera in a cream or soft yellow in size 20. This is the same thread that I used for the last doily of 2009. I like this thread very much because it tats up nicely and doesn't catch. I will try to post every week.
