Now this is a little gem to tat. The design is (in my opinion) a terrifically great one as it just 'works'. I only wish it was my design but at least it belongs to one of my favourite tatters (and amazing bobbin lacer). Anybody guess?
Well it's Rosemarie Peel's design and comes from one of her books. The pattern is in the book called (Tatting Basic Patterns). Just had a look and she's still got copies of that book here on her site.
I'm taking this pattern and shuttles to make another of these little mats while I'm travelling. I can't tat on the plane but I can in the departure lounge and I'll be spending a few hours there!!!

why can't you tat on the plane? - I love the star in the centre of this design,it's a wonderful example of negative space.
Mainly cause if you drop something it's so hard to find it again!!! Also it's just something I rarely do. This time as I'm working on a lovely repetitive design I just may try again!!!
Please miss... I know who miss!!! I needs to work out which book tho!! Cause I needs to do that pattern!!
Believe it or not, that's one book I don't have. I guess I'll have to get it!
Well, Pigmini, IF you'd got out your BC3 AND read the post properly you'd know which book!!!! Do you need me to tell you again or should I come up to Yorkshire and point your nose at it!!!!!!
I love tatting in airports and waiting rooms, it make everything okay and time fly. This motif is cheery and fun :)
Very beautiful!! :)
Great little pattern, fun book and perfect thread!
