Bullion Sun

 Bullion Sun -- a few rounds of weaving, then .... colour change!   (Tutorial 06).   I used DMC Cebelia green Col. 955, No. 20.    Added DMC Cebelia pink Col. 818, No. 20.  1.25",

 Growing Collection.

 

Bullion Sun

 Another addition:  Simple Bullion Stitches.  Center - per video, also can weave 3 rounds first, then add the bullion stitches - forms cylinders.

 1.25" 20 pins.  I tried DMC Coton Perle 8.  Color 959.   Very soft fiber.  Probably will go back to using Cebelia or Flora -- I wonder how Lizbeth fibers would work ....

Tutorial (04):  Sol Cuadrado con Ojete Configuración de Puntada # 1

"sun with an eyelet (hole) in the center. The eyelet sun is an easy design to make and has a simple beauty. The sun is completed with a simple round of knots. If this is the first time you are watching this video, consider watching the second video on the channel so you can see the details of how to make a simple round of knots around the sun."

 This is the Eyelet Sun pattern before Knots ... awesome eyelets ... just sayin
 

Bit of tatting ...

Tatting at the DuPage Co Fair over the

week-end.   Butterflys, a daisy, couple inches added to tatted edges.   (It can be a challenge to tat with the humid weather.)  Gave some butterflys away, enjoyed talking "tatting" with fair guests, most waiting to give bobbin lace a try. 

 Three bobbin lace "try me" pillows remained busy all afternoon.

   The 'Cheerful Daisy' pattern is in this book (book cover below).  I did a quick tat & think a re-tat needed.

The ISBN 978-4-05-800660-3 belongs to the Japanese craft book はじめてでも楽しくできる タティングレース (Tatting Lace: From Basics to Arrangements) by Chiko Sugimoto, published by Gakken.
