Straining the brain!!!!

This is the first part (and part of the second part) of the doily called ‘Tatted Garland’ from Erika’s book ‘Tatting Lace, Marmelo’.

I’m so glad I’ve got a few years experience with front/back side tatting as I feel this really needs to be made that way.  I’m not a ‘fan’ particularly of this way of tatting but it does make a big difference.  To do this round you really have to be ‘on your toes’!!!

Thoroughly enjoyable, though.

  1. It’s such a lovely design. I have many to do before I get to it though. So I am enjoying seeing your Garland taking shape.

  8. Wow! If it's challenging you, Jane, I think I'll just appreciate it when I look at yours. It does look as if it's going to be gorgeous, but I'm not good with front side/ back side tatting for a big project. Looking forward to seeing future parts of this piece.

  9. It looks great, Jane! I think I'll leave this one up to you for now. I don't think my brain is up to that much work!
