If you love tatted lace, jewellery, plants and anything handcrafted, come back often. I will regularly post items that are made by me, plants that I grow and interesting things that I photograph.

Tatted Butterflies Part 2
More butterflies from Adelheid Dangela's book 'Tatted Butterflies'. This pattern named Paula is found on page 26. I like how the body of the butterfly is designed. Quite a unique pattern consisting mostly chains. Thread used here is Altin Basak Size 50 Col. 311.
This was tatted specially for Fox of Tat-ology. Just a thank you gift for organizing the thread exchange. I hope she has received it together with the threads we exchanged. This pattern is called Ricarda (a variation of Paula) on page 27 of the book. I used Coron Size 40 in a variegated green (#155-8A).

They are all very pretty, i especially love the pink "flora" one.
ReplyDeleteWeren't these fun to tat? Challenging but small enough that it was more fun than frustrating? I do like this book tho instructions are at a minimum. I think I've either tatted or recieved one of each in an exchange.
ReplyDeleteI even cannot say, which is the best ) They are beautiful )

ReplyDeleteWow! These are all so beautiful and to think that gorgeous green one has my name on it! How exciting! Thank you so much! I have not received the threads yet, but am now more than a little anxious to see the mailman this week - he already thinks I am a bit loopy, hanging around the post box as I do!
