Nanduti 1 Class -- re try [Edited post]

Ripped out a LOT.   Giving another try.   (EDITED post)

  

I was not happy with the large circle or knotted flowers.   Thought there was too much - squished too many stitches in too small of a circle.

 -- Nanduti 1 Classes.

   

Ripped a lot out and gave another 'go'.   Knotted flowers changed to woven petals.  Larger 'grid' to practice the motif of woven/knotted areas.

(3 flower cluster DMC #12, Col 794 blue, 223 Rose, 676 Gold); outside ring 676 Gold, 316 Rose, 503 green; 2 Leaf made with DMC 928 & DMC 503; lg circle 316 rose, 676 grid/knots)

Practice on the flowers - they all need rings of knots near the outside circle.

single circles / floral:  Anchor 12, Col. 0968 and 0969.

The circle was challenging - Now that I have the hang of it.  I laced a new piece of fabric on a frame to try the circle pattern again.   Will try larger circle with grid / outside ring.   Maybe it will look better now that I understand the patterns.

Nanduti Medallion Class

 It is a start of the Nanduti Medallion Class.  Instructor Dawn Loving. We have several sessions to learn the patterns for each segment.   Virtual Education thru The Lace Museum.

I'm using Anchor Pearl cotton 12, Col. 1011 & DMC coton perle 12, Col. 3823.

Before the next class I will try to have two circles filled in. [Torre (tower) and Vaka Pysape (cow hoof) patterns].

It is exciting to learn new patterns in the circles and rings.  Should be an exceptional project once completed.
