Doilies, Teapots, Bracelet, Motifs, Earrings, Bookmarks, Edging and Flowers

Denise liked the collar pattern from Lyn Morton's book Tatting Patterns, but she wanted a doily. She tatted it in Lizbeth size 20 Colour #651 Blue Med. & DMC Cebelia size 20 White.

Marie tatted more tiny teapots from Martha Ess's book, Tea is for Tatting, the top left was done with one strand of Sulky 30 wt, #4032 and one strand of gold sewing thread, the top right is one strand of Sulky 30 wt, #4016 and one strand of silver sewing thread, and the bottom is two strands of Sulky 30 wt, #4013 and two strands of gold sewing thread. In the next set the left has one strand of Lizbeth size 40 in Summer Breeze and one strand of gold sewing thread, the top right has one strand of pearl cotton #12 and one strand of gold sewing thread, the bottom right has one strand of Sulky 30 wt, #4102 and one strand of gold sewing thread. Then there are two for her resin shuttle, the top one strand of Lizbeth size 40 in Summer Breeze and one strand of gold sewing thread, the bottom one is an unknown sewing thread, smaller than the 30 wt and one strand of gold sewing thread. The pendant design is from her book Tatsmithing which she has recently completed.


Frivole tatted TotusMel's Corsage Bracelet in Country Turquoise Light and paired it with Fudge, but she had to modify it slightly because the shuttle tatted bracelet was a little smaller than the original needle tatted one. Her doily is progressing and now she is working on the second butterfly round.


Jess tatted the following 8 flowers from The Artistry of Teiko Fujito the top one is the blended thread from Val that tats up to about like size 40 and the bottom two are size 20, and are her attempt at recreating Citrilcious.  Then there is a new Serendipity followed by LadyShuttlemaker's Magnolia, then the next three are her own and from left to right Queen Anthias, Pink Lemonade with a Queen Anthias center and Torch Lily. Then she emptied her shuttle of Serenditpity with one of her one shuttle hearts, but didn't have quite enough thread. The next one is the first two rounds of the Sweet Rose pattern by Jon Yusoff from Tatted Snowflake Collection.

Anika tatted a pendant for her aunt in lime green thread by Lizbeth with a thread of silver with it and some little beads in the middle. She tatted a pair of earrings for her mom for Mother's Day in Lizbeth, with 6 little clear blue beads on each motif.

 

Nancy tatted a "grandma's flower" garden before, but this time she's doing it in white and pastel.

Diane's next Sulky blendable's colour used for Kersti's Stumpy is Forest Floor. When she ordered a silver shuttle from Marie, she also received two tatted teapots. When Stephanie Grace found out that red was Diane's Mom's favourite colour, she sent her these pieces. Diane won a Bee Shuttle on ebay and it came in a lovely organza bag decorated with tatting. These green Stumpy bookmarks are tatted in Moss Medley. She finished her smallest Spinning Wheel glass mat in Sulky Blendables 12 wt, #4056, Periwinkles.


 

Fox used Fancy Fields HDT by Jess at Tat-ilicious to tat a motif from Tatting Doilies and Edgings, but she thinks her method of tatting resulted in rings that rolled. She likes the new GR8 shuttles she has received and used to tat this motif but she finds their shape takes a while to adjust to them. She plans to hand deliver these socks rather than trust them to the mail. She's excited to show this recent motif which is not the sort of thing she usually has enjoyed.


Sherry posts a follow up on the diminutive bookmark done in very fine thread. She has tatted even more 3D flowers.
