Earrings, Necklaces, Edgings, Bracelets, Motifs and Awesome Tatting

Meme is one of our earlier participants in the 25 Motif Challenge and she recently sent me some pictures of some tatting she did. The back of the bridal gown is tatted and the earrings are tatted in white and silver thread making an utterly luscious bride. Check out her blog to see it in all it's glory.

Tats shows us what KrystleDawne's "Mad Science Blue and Green" HDT looks like tatted up. After spending some time shuttle tatting, she had to break out her needles again to make sure she remembered how to use them. The cross is tatted in size 10 thread in seafoam green.

BSOTF shares her container of practice pieces with the comment that they sometimes answer questions for you. That's what I tell the designing class too. Every piece of lace you tat teaches you something, even if it's just a practice piece or a cast off bit.
