Charlotte is taking a break from snowflakes to tat flowers. Jeanne Lugert's 3D rose pattern is in size 16 Ancora Prestige thread. Then one inspired by Krystle's flower pendants and earrings tatted in Yarnplayer's snowflake thread in size 20. Finally, a design from Yarnplayer's Up and Tat 'Em pattern book which she completed in size 20 black Flora thread with Swarovski crystals which will have a cord added to make lovely Christmas present.
