Jeannette Luttmer (Canada) likes flowers, trees and gardening and her favourite flower is poppy. So, I decided to tat a poppy for Jeannette's birthday ATC, and ended up running late trying to design one when I couldn't find any which I like. This tatted poppy may not look quite like the real flower especially when it's 2D, but I hope this unique ATC will further brighten up the special day for Jeannette, whose birthday falls on 1 Apr.
After I sent off the ATC to the birthday gal, I worked on a second piece for the month of March for The Linen Shelf's ATC Challenge.

I'm back to creating inchies and rinchies. Here's are the Easter sets embellished with tatted eggs, rabbits and flowers.

As always, I enjoyed looking at your postings too. Wondering about your little tatted Easter bunny. I found one looking like it on the website of a German tatter Ulla but I had to change the pattern. Instead of 9 stitches I had to do 12. I also did a split ring and then could continue with the head. Wondering what you did. You do beautiful work!!!
Thank you to everyone for all the sweet encouragement, sure spur me on!
Well, Christa, I tatted the bunny the beginner's way. C&T the body and then start the head. 2 more ends to get rid of, but I prefer this way to get a nice body ring. A cute little bunny!
Love that poppy.
