I have actually been tatting when I get the chance, but I haven't been able to show much. I tatted an Autumn Spice garland, but I haven't got a picture of it yet(I will). And while sitting at the hospital with a friend an older man asked what I was doing(tatting dreamcatcher earrings) so I showed him, and he saw my small garlands and he asked if he could buy the silver with red, white, and green thread-so I made a sale sitting in the waiting room. And, I started this pattern from Jane Eborall found here: http://www.janeeborall.freeservers.com/CelticFriendBracelet.pdf
I love her colors!!! I am making this for a friend with Cerebreal Palsy(hopefully it's spelled right). And when I am done with this bracelet I have to make me the same one cuz' she wants us to have friendship bracelets(mine will have a blue center-her favorite color is purple, and mine is blue). :)
This is a project which takes tons of my attention and really good lighting!!!

One reason I like doing this pattern is the fun of using colours!!! It's always a surprise to see how it turns out!!!
I chose it as a challenge piece for me because of the fabulous colors in the picture on the pattern. I also like it because it will be a little different, yet the same as friendship bracelets which will make my friend happy!! :) Thanks so much for sharing the pattern(as you have with so many wonderful designs of yours!!). :)
looks great, and Jane has always helped us out with all kinds of fun things to try!
Bracelet looks great. Would love to see both bracelets side by side before you give one away. And that pattern looks complicated. Four shuttles!!
Thanks Madtatter80 and mb duke!! :)
mb duke, I will do my best to show both bracelets when done(because, I too want to see them side by side!!). The pattern doesn't look complicated and it truly isn't, but it's a lot of concentration making sure everything gets joined where it should. It's just rings and chains.....and yes, 4 shuttles. :)
The concentration will be well worth the effort!
Thank you Jane!! :) I agree. I have about 2 inches complete. It will take some time, but I think my friend will be very pleased!! :) Now I can't wait to see mine. :)
Ooh lovely Tatting! And... I love Jane Eborall patterns too. Oh my GOD!! Four shuttles???!! Wow, you have patience and concentration! ;)
Best of Lucks and waiting to see what they look like!
Thank you Aysh!! I can't wait to get them done, but they are going slow and I am hoping NOT to make any mistakes!! :)
