So, after I'd killed the last trial it was a case of starting again in the middle!!! After another evening or two I came up with this.
Next problem was 'what do I call it' so I asked Sally who suggested it looked like a roundabout - the sort you see in Children's playgrounds. So it's got a name now!!!! Quite nice when you've got a name, isn't it? Now to tackle the drawings and getting the text and drawings put together.
After that a space of a few days to allow myself to forget how I did it and then I'll try the pattern again - to see if it makes sense to me!!!!
Oh, that looks so pretty, I love the roundabout.
ReplyDeleteI love this one Jane! I shall look forward to the pattern. Thank you so much for sharing all your great designing with us! Those lock chains in two colours look really pretty but I like the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteGreat design, Jane - love the top one with the variegated thread!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love the final product! It's a wonderful piece, can't wait for the pattern!
ReplyDeleteLovely job with this one.

Of course they can - if they learn to shuttle tat, Kelly!!!!!! You give me the opportunity every time to give you a hard time!!! Seriously - I'm not sure but I expect they can.
ReplyDeleteOh this does look like a merry-go-round with the kids leaning out as it goes around. Brilliant name Sally. Great pattern Jane
ReplyDeleteOh, I like this one...what a pretty motif!
