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.
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.
ReplyDeleteThat looks fabulous!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI await the finished article with baited breath!! As I've not treat me... Yet!!
ReplyDeleteSigh, absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLooks complicated but worth the effort!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful
ReplyDeleteLove this !
ReplyDeleteWow! 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.
ReplyDeleteIt 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!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeletei've been patiently awaiting her return to Etsy so I can buy one of her patterns......ok, not so patient. Dying, really
