Same Cross Bookmark as the last, but done with Lizbeth size 40 Lilac Dk. with the size 50 Fushia HDT from LadyShuttlemaker. I have finished off my Fushia so...this ended up having a shorter bottom to the cross. The pattern has 6 motifs in the bottom of the cross and this ended up with 4. I think it looks pretty good. :)

2011: 25 Motif Challenge- Motif #19
This is the Saturn Ring Doily from Traditional Tatting Patterns edited by Rita Weiss. It's tatted in Lizbeth size 40 Lilac Dk.
A friend of ours has been staying with us for the past couple of weeks and he has watched this from beginning to end and has been amazed.
It's too big for the scanner as you can see, but most of it fit so I figured since it would give a much better picture than my camera I would use it.

2011: 25 Motif Challenge- Motif #18
Well...I have gotten some tatting done worth showing. I really love this Cross Bookmark from Traditional Tatting Patterns Edited by Rita Weiss. It's tatted in size 40 Celery HDT from YarnPlayer, and size 50 Fushia from LadyShuttlemaker. These colors are so gorgeous together and I love this cross so much I am keeping it for me. :)
Here it is with a black background to show off the colors a bit more. *Oh, the only thing I didn't do was the tassel and cord in the pattern.

2011: 25 Motif Challenge- Motif #17
I have tatting to show!!! :)
Since our move I have gotten a little tatting done. Here is Mary Konior's Asters edging from Tatting with Visual Patterns on a headband. It's tatted in Lizbeth size 40 Juicy Watermelon with red beads. The only change I made in the pattern was using extra long picots to make joins and to create ends for it.(I think it's actually prettier in real life).
Here is a view showing the stretchy headband I used.
I checked out a book at the library called Traditional Tatting Patterns edited by Rita Weiss and found a beautiful square doily I wanted to try. It's called Filigree Scroll. I only got the center done, but I was trying to loosen my stitches a bit and I don't like the result of the center so I will have to try again. I love the color choices I made though. They are both HDTs :size 40 Celery by YarnPlayer, and size 50 Fushia by LadyShuttlemaker-AWESOME colors!!!
Note: anyone looking for tablecloth patterns to tat....I found 2 in this book and they are gorgeous! :)
