A HUGE thanks to Tim for checking up my Juliana translation and finding a few errors in it.
He sent me this picture of his finished doily and I LOVE it. Thanks a MILLION, Tim.
I just needed a few more quiet days to get the pattern finished and up on the site and luckily I managed that at the weekend.
Here's a link to the pattern and here's a link to the history that I've found out and some of the text I had to work from!
Köszönöm szépen

Dear Jane
ReplyDeleteThis project is astonishing and a testament to how clever BC3 really is. Please don’t try to tell us otherwise.
Preserving and promoting such an old pattern is wonderful in itself, but for it to be so complicated and translated from Dutch, well, my BC3 boggles.
And congratulations to Tim too for his test tat. I have put Juliana on my list but it may take a while for me to be brave enough to have a go!
Congratulations to you and the team on making an old pattern accessible to modern tatters. It is pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun. Thank YOU for the chance to do it.
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely pattern!
ReplyDeleteTim's doily looks pretty, Jane you did so much great work in modernising this pattern. Thank you for your expertise.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful oval doily! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pattern! Thanks to you for figuring it all out and writing it down so all of us could tat it, and thanks to Tim for his test tatting/proofreading. It might take me a while to get brave enough to try it, but it's definitely going onto my 'want to tat this' list.
