edging gone round


Winter White Edging
c.Kaye B. Judt, 2010

Flora Size 20
Color 45


This pattern was intended to be edging
by changing the picots (smaller), I made it round.

This fiber is one of my favourite
colors - the lilac shades are wonderful
and shout out "Spring"!!!

I have the pattern by Kaye B. Judt
from Tatting Day
hosted by The Tatting Corner

Look what I found

Notice the little paw in the photo?

I was sorting thru 'stuff'
and our Honey Bunny watched me
until she dozed off.


This motif was tatted with
Flora size 50
Color 30.

Again, I added a few more rings
and chains - didn't quite understand
the 'repeat' in the pattern.

The pattern is in:



Easy Tatting
by Rozella F. Linden


Sometimes, taking time to go thru
boxes + organizing is a good thing.

I think I have everything gathered up
and in one place, instead of tucked
here-n-there!!!!

more mini tats ...


These three are in the Minitats book by Patti Duff.

One of the yellow ones has a messy 'chain' -- it doesn't look great. Not sure what I did to distort the chain, maybe ending the fiber end.

I may tat it again.


Yellow - Motif #1
Yellow (star) - Motif #2 variant
Pink - Motif #34 variant

This is such a nice book,
I think they are perfect sizes

Ok, so I was looking for shamrocks - easy stuff - and enjoyed tatting these small motifs.

I also has some extra fiber on a couple of shuttles
and made up a few butterfly motifs (my own pattern) - for friends.
