It's done in Lizbeth size 40 Fruit Fizz thread. It's an antique pattern found here: http://www.antiquepatterns.dreamhosters.com/DMCTat.pdf Ground (figure 24) Medallions
I also got this ornament done for a friend who requested it. It's done in size 10 red and size 10 white thread. The pattern is from Elegant Tatting Patterns by Janet Carroll pg. 28 #3. I stiffened the picots with fabric stiffener so hopefully it will store nicely.
Thank you very much everyone for all the thoughts and prayers. Things are seeming to calm down a bit and as you can see I am getting some tatting accomplished(yeah!!!). May you all be blessed!!! :)

Oh, how pretty! I wish I didn't have to cook right now. I'd much rather tat!
Hi Sue,
Don't you just love Fruit Fizz. The colours look great and your doily is pretty.
Beautiful doily. I like antique patterns and I love the color.
I love your fruit fizz doily!
What a fantastic medallion! Great tatting, Sue!

hi!! thanks for stopping by my blog.. just returning to tatting!! i like your hanging motif for your friend! and the doily! congrats!

I keep coming back and looking at this. It really appeals to me - perhaps the simplicity of the pattern and the threads you used. I don't know how it would look in a plain colour... I have to try it as I cannot stop thinking about it!
