What do you make? Handcrafted / Handmade / Made with Love

My daughter and I have been playing with the Cricut the past few days... messing around with vinyl. I made these two. The one on the wall is a removable vinyl decal, the one on my cup is perminant.

My daughter designed this one. It's on her wall now.

This one I'll be cutting today for my son's room (he's a swimmer obviously lol). This will be the first multi color one I do and the biggest at about 20" x 24"

These are super easy to make though and a lot of fun :)
 
A neighbour taught me to needle tat about 10 years ago. (I started out with size 10 thread and size 5 needle, then went to smaller thread size 20 and thinner size 8 needle). My thinner needles always bent in no time, but I have no problem using them - I don't buy more until they break on me. I've mostly needle tatted during that time, until this year when I challenged myself to just shuttle tat. There are lots of very helpful tatting groups on facebook and great tutorials for needle and shuttle on You Tube. Georgia Seitz beginner tatting series is very good (both for needle and shuttle). Here's a picture of a choker and earrings I needle tatted a few years ago with my bent needles.

(The hummingbird in previous pictures was needle tatted too)
Thank you! Awesome 😻
So I can keep using my bent needles, woo :). That should keep me happy and buy some time until I learn to use the shuttle.

Those are GREAT!
I have a love, hate, hate relationship with mine. It wants a computer/tablet to run from, which I don't have. I have chromebooks, and it doesn't work well at all from the phone. DH and DS have large operating systems, but I'm not clogging them up with art. LOL.

Lol! I like using my computer for planning my saddle projects and cutting them out but I did all the vinyl projects from my phone. Now that I have saddle templates saved, I use my phone for most of it. It's easier than trying to get my laptop from my DH (he's doing final projects for his college classes and needs my laptop since it's Windows and his isn't lol)
