2012 25 Motif Challenge

Motif #1 is Tatted Heart from the Handy Hands catalog for Jan.-Dec. 2011 done in size 40 Lizbeth Rainbow Taffy.
Motif # 2 is the 5 pointed motif on the right in size 40 Lizbeth Christmas Red and the pattern is from here: http://www.middia.net/domocredix/index.php?id_kat=1&id=16
The center top one is the first try in which I some how wasn't smart enough that day to count 4 instead of 5. :D
The rest in this set are just random tattings which I did during the holidays whenever I could get a break.
The 3 red hearts(2 with stud earrings) are going to be a necklace and earring set for a young girl when I get the silver chain for the necklace and I finish off the ends.
There is a very white size 80 snowflake in the center which I have done before and the pattern is here: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxKhtrg2Lz1UVUTaVIcYuXZr-03CRF8jAVnY7ZIWUNOKx7Sr77sJWKeKf7YaWjwv7VgrkdkV8c1Ybfp5MJoj7ijkJH2xcP7HwAIBq7C6yzeABwvMFNlnroAwFZO2IZ1TJAQkWkFj18-IQ/s1600/PC022879.JPG
And all the butterflies and hearts are just from emptying shuttles.



Motif #3 is a hanky edging. From Mary Konior's Tatting with Visual Patterns. This is Asters done is size 40 Lizbeth Purple Iris Fusion. I gave this as a Christmas gift to a friend.

I LOVE YOUR HANKIE EDGING! It's just stunning. Did you weave the thread thru all the holes? That is a clever idea!
