A glutton for punishment, thats me!

This is the LAST time I will ever make her anything! Ok, first offered to make a necklace for her yesterday, therefore only having to tat 1 item. She would not have it! It HAD to be earrings! Ok so earrings made etc....She called today, demanding them. She came over, I gave them to her and she had the nerve to pretend like she was going to put them in, and then just shoved them in her pocket!!! Later, she saw my youngest making beaded jewelry and demanded in a whiny voice for her to make her "a nice pair of earrings" for SPD!!! This evening (still not wearing them) she then said could I make her a necklace instead!!!! When I gave her the earrings, she kept "picking" at them and even pretended she couldnt put them in her ears (they were small kidney wires and she's had pierced since before I was born!) She agreed to buy them but she then said she would have rather had a necklace instead!!! This was AFTER they were made!
I just cant win for losing!!!
Tell me, is there anything wrong with these? (OK besides the bad camera shot!)

Shamrock Earrings-With a rant

My mother continuously begs for just about everything I ever make. Every time she comes over and sees my tatting or me tatting it's always "Where's mine" ?- it drives me nuts! I have missed out on selling items, displaying items, gifts etc because of her greed plus the fact that I have been out of commission for a time and now back tatting again, only has brought back her demand for me to tat for her alone. Even gifts I have received from people I have taught to tat, she wants them too!! I have tried to tell her no and all I get is an everlasting guilt trip! Nevertheless, now she wanted shamrock earrings (whine, whine, whine) I told her, I was working on a birthday gift and I couldn't promise I would drop my current project for her items (again with the guilt!) she kept hounding me! I finally had to send my hubby across town with her to get her out of my hair. While then peacefully working on another shamrock that I thought had too much work for her to deserve it for all her demands and whining, I conjured up this little pattern that is quick and easy to make. I know that there are dozens of shamrock patterns out there, so if I may have inadvertently made it too much like another's, it was completely unintentional. This was however inspired by dimpled rings (don't know who created them, but want to aknowledge the artist who did) R10 vsp 3+8 vsp 1 R2+8 vsp 3+8 vsp 1 R2+8 vsp 3+10 C10 Tie off- Make 2 Enjoy! Feel free to make, improvise, alter and distibute if desired. Please however give designer credit.

I'm Being Watched!

This is my supervisor.....She watches me closely as I tat.  She uses me as a chair and comes and goes as she pleases..... On a positive note, she keeps my lap warm and I get a nice vibratey massage when she purrs!
