This is a great design from Marilee Rockley. Thank you Marilee. How do you come up with designs?
I love the smooth edge that the node stitch gave this earring. This pair was tatted using Tat-ilicious' HDT called Mindanao Gum Size 40. Delica beads and Swarovski crystal pearls (5mm) were used. It measures about 2 inches from top of earring design or 2.75 inches from top of ear hooks.
I think if you use more rounded beads instead of Delica, it would arrange nicely just like in the book. I must try it.
Oh they are so beautiful, I love the colours and of course it's a great pattern,

ReplyDeleteI think the seed beads that I used on the book models were Czech seed beads, but I'm not sure.
That's absolutely gorgeous! Marilee is an exceptionally talented designer and you did a wonderful job bringing the pattern to life. Love the colors!
