Want to feel old? Try this little
website. It calculates how many days you've been alive, what happened around the time you were born, an historical event that is closer to your birthday than today is, etc. The link takes you to my birthday, but at the bottom you can do your own or someone else's.
Here's the bracelet I finished (in sunlight, so you can almost see the pretty beads). Sorry about the bizarre background.
And have you ever wondered just how far somewhere is, compared to what you know? For example, compared to your hometown, just how big is London? Try
comparing the maps and see.
Palmetto Tat Days was great fun (as usual). I took a Nina Libin class, and made one lovely pair of earrings. I started another set, but the thread tangled awfully. I messed the pig I made in Jane Eborall's class, or at least it looks quite funny. The key turned out well. Dawn taught us some origami as a break from tatting.
