Bad Combination

Complex pattern with no diagram + recovering from dental surgery + migraine headache = ERROR, ERROR! I did not arrange the chains symmetrically as I started down the other side. I decided that I'm really not well enough right now to work on anything that requires this much concentration, so I'm sitting this pattern aside for later. It is a beautiful design and I should make sure I can give it the attention it deserves. So today I'm going to go back to browsing my collection for simpler patterns that will allow me to enjoy tatting without so much concentration.

Happy Tatting

Get well soon! Migraines are the worst. I couldn't even think of picking up a shuttle with a migraine, let alone try a complicated pattern. I hope you find one that soothes your nerves rather than rattle your brain. ;-)

Thanks, Diane. While I feel much better today, I'm certainly looking for something soothing instead of challenging. That's a great way to phrase it. Thank you.

Thanks, Margaret. I'm already feeling much better. Today I've just got the post-migraine blahs and fatigue--having trouble getting motivated to do anything.

...Hope you get well soon, be sure everybody of us would have had the same "success" in tatting in such a mood...

The colors are quite pretty!! :)
I feel like tatting and headaches alone are not a good combination, so you really mixed it up. Hope you are very well soon!!! :)

Thanks, my friends. I'm feeling better and getting some tatting done, too.
