Diane took Miranda's Tat This challenge and used a 10 ring centre to tat the first doily. Then she learned that the doily was actually the first rounds of Nancy Tracy's Mom's Pink Doily, so she did it again in green following Nancy's pattern and there is quite a difference in size. The grandchildren were on hand for the day and got to choose their favourite laces to take home. Then they chose thread and asked grandma to make a doily, a heart, and a star and Lily chose size 40 Lizbeth, #137, Berry Burst and Mom's Pink Doily by Nancy Tracy, but just the first 3 rounds.
Fox tatted this design by Julie Patterson in HDT by Tatskool with sparkly blue thread from Suneeti. The Heart for Misha pattern is available now in her Etsy shop.

Frivole was going to make earrings by decided instead to use Karey Solomon's County Fair HDT with Lizbeth in Natural to make a brooch based on the same layered flower idea. She added the dangly pearls at different lengths and with different size freshwater pearls. They are attached with tiny Josephine knots to give added texture and interest. Here are the earrings she made for herself with Karey's threads. She played a bit more with the interlocking rings in this two-tone neutral colour rosette to make a brooch for her mother but she wasn't satisfied with the results. Edwige Renaudin teasingly put a picture of this motif in her book saying the method would be in the next book and Frivole was challenged to give it a try and she likes the effects of the rolled ring. Here is Mary's Butterfly tatted in Jess's hand-dyed thread called Havana.
Jess's daughter received a tooth fairy card in the mail from Mrs. Sarah adorned with Jane Eborall's Fairy and lots for tatted flowers. Jess has tatted more motifs on buttons.

Another motif on a button was attached to layers of tulle around a ring for a suncatcher.
