    Thank you for the Christmas present, Marilee! I hope to finish Dave's afghan soon so that I can get back to tatting. I can picture a tree full of Christmas bells!

    Thank you Marilee! Last year I tatted all the Christmas trees I could find, this year I had no time for that, but I'm thinking next year I'll do bells.

    Lovely Marilee, and thank you! I see a little of the bell in your Midnight Oil necklace.

    I'm glad you all like the bell pattern! I've been kicking this idea around in various ways (yes, Sally, it also appears in the Midnight Oil necklace!) and this arrangement seemed to work best for a bell ornament. I think it might do for a pendant, earrings, a motif for clothing, etc., as well.

    Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a wonderful New Year to you all, good friends!
