Tatted Sunflower

Pattern:   Sunflower ~ A Sunflower made in Shuttle Tatting ~

Kelli Slack ~ Kelli Slack Designs ~ www.kellislackdesigns.com c. 2022

This is an adaptation of the Sunflower Pattern.

Wednesday's zoom class/session via The Lace Museum Virtual Education,

was taught by Kelli Slack,  information here.  During our class, I didn't create the

full pattern - did enough to learn the elements.   

It begins with a coil chain center [which I could use more practice] and individual flower petals.   The pattern could be used with beads, different colors, different petal lengths, different center sizes, etc.   Such a creative pattern and enjoyable zoom session.

The pattern is available from A Twisted Picot, by kit 

or by pattern.   

My adaptation was made with Lizbeth, size 20, colors 692 + 613.

I purchased them to use at the

Feast of the Hunters' Moon.

Oct 4-5 2024

 

New start with bobbin lace, need to fill some tatting shuttles.

 

This is the start of a Spiral Icicle.   Bobbin Lace with Beads.  I'm using Lizbeth size 20, Color 601.  The beads are crystal.   (I think 2.5mm bicone).

It was the June program from the Lafayette Lacemakers chapter (yesterday).  Always nice to learn how to do new things with bobbin lace.

Pattern:   Spiral Icicle    c CRegnier 5-24.

This week, I'm looking forward to a zoom session thru the Lace Museum, Virtual Education.   A tatted sunflower taught by Kelli Slack.   She uses an interesting Coil Chain center.    Fingers crossed I can manage to get it right.  Photos to follow of the sunflower after the class.    Time to get the tatting shuttles wound.

The new(er) sessions/classes are posted -- follow the link to see them.

Where did 'that' go?

Making progress, 1/4 to go.   With a couple minor mistakes.

 I probably should have used the smaller pattern with size 80 Lizbeth.

This pattern (once finished) will be apx 5" accross.

Lizbeth Size 20, Col. 623.

Pattern:  Fans and Spiders Circular Frame

c.Karen H. Thompson

 Spent some time trying to organize.  Seemed it was taking me too long to "find" things!    Fun to come accross projects in the works --

 

Got carried away and put my sharp needles together, and my blunt needles together, and my special needles together.   Then, went to my pins.   Not sure how long they will remain organized.
