Weekend tatting

Awhile back I was playing around with this design program:  
I ended up with a few possible designs and have only tried this one here:
But it was cupping quite a bit and I wanted to see if I could do better and make it
look more like the drawing.
Here is my design:  I call it the Backward Swirl(I had said wreath,
but I am changing it to motif).  :)
Here it's tatted looking more like what I wanted!!!  
I love the "rolling waves" around the outside!!  :) 
 It's tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Salmon Med.
And I also did some Salmon stars.  :)
Hope you are having a wonderful day!!!  :)
Enjoy any tatting!!! :)

That's a very pretty medallion. It somehow looks like 'motion' even though it doesn't actually move. Like the color, too.

Awesome! I think you will find designing to be quite addictive once you get going!

God's Kid said...

I'm very impressed with your motif! Thanks for sharing the link to the designing webpage. I played with it just a little. It has some nice, easy-to-use features.

God's Kid said...

Thank you Eliz!! :) I am glad that you got a chance to check out that designer tool too!! I did realize that you have to put either a ring or chain on first, and then click the number count of how many you want. It's kind of easy. :)
