Are you fed up with this yet? I'm not!!!
I'm still plodding away with the mat and am dreading the next part which will be mainly 'fill ins' I think. I may even change the colours on those too. By fill ins I mean the ones which surround the central dark pink star. The next ones will surround the blue and green ones. Perhaps today I will play with diamonds on my drawing software to see what variations of designs I can come up with.
The colours are working well for me at the moment - do like the variegated ones in the centres surrounded by plain. I'm glad I stuck with the original colours.
The next stage won't fit on the scanner so I'll have to take photos of it!!!!

You've almost doubled it in size, since last time! - it's going to be huge, and I think it looks rather Art-Deco-ish. I have a very old Chinese ginger jar which would look perfect on it.
I'm interested in seeing how you are going to treat the long straight bits between the outer stars - it's all rather mathematical, isn't it!
...it is striking!
looking beautiful.
Dear merciful God, you are a fast tatter. It's getting to be enormous!
And lovely!
A FEW more diamonds!? There are much more than a few there! :-P You've been busy - but the color scheme is definitely starting to come together now. It looks like a tatted quilt - I love it! :-)
I probably missed it from sometime before the last post about this one, but do you have a pattern for this one posted, or are you waiting until it's finished? I'd love this one. I know someone that would just adore it =-)
Truly colourful and growing fast, looking lovely so far, How big are you going to make it.

Hi RandaGray there is a pattern which I did ages ago!!! Here's the link http://www.e.n.e.btinternet.co.uk/Diamond.pdf. I also did squares and triangles to fit in with the diamond and they're here http://www.e.n.e.btinternet.co.uk/Squaretriangle.pdf
No idea, Margaret. I've made one before but hope to go further this time!!!
Wonderfully beautiful and fun colors! :)
Boy Jane, I can't believe how much tatting you get done. You are amazing.
Thank you! =-)
