Snowflakes

This celtic snowflake inspired by the begginer flake below that I tatted as a sample piece for the beggining tatting class I will start next month.


























This will be project number one for tatting class number one.








Maybe for a future class I will use this one.

It's a patriotic Christmas

I love Christmas.

Last Christmas was special because it was a USA Christmas. You'd be surprised how much you miss candy canes, Christmas carols, and the companionship of Americans.

This design was kinda an accident that turned out right. Next time I'll add more picots on the final round and use a thinner thread. I probably will add a few more rounds to this and place it on my desk at work to remind me what I'm working for. (to have money to buy more thread of course!)

Motifs

The center for motif number one ended up as wings for an angel pin.

The objective for this motif was simple and quick for giving away at Christmas. The 3 berries are tied on with bows and this works up super quick.

The medallion tat a long

I made this from the pattern that was posted. I'm obsessed with pink. This is the "basic" motif.... variations to follow.. along with my original motifs.








"I'm a little loopy," says this variation. I'm thinking pincushion cover or collar mediallion.
