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.

Herford with Horstmar
You saw Hortsmar in Size 80 earlier. I tatted it in Lizbeth #655 Wedgewood light. Added Herford tatted in #106 Spring Fling. Both patterns by Adelheid Dangela from her book Occhi-Patchwork. Lots of negative spaces. In the book another round is added. Perhaps I will do it much later when I have the right colour thread. My Lizbeth thread stash of Size 80 is limited. I need Raspberry pink medium #624 or Wedgewood dark #656.
Such long chains in size 80 ?! Phew ! I can't believe how beautifully - evenly & neatly - it has all been tatted ... the stars form a perfect circle too ! Perfect :-)))
So pretty! Beautiful tatting. I would have sent you the #80, if i had it, but alas it is not in my stash either!
ReplyDeleteI am very tempted to order that book. - just what I NEED!
Thank you, Fox. I will get them in my next order. Get this book. I prefer it to the second book.
DeleteWow, stunning.
ReplyDeleteThat's just lovely! Did you block it or did it just come out perfect?
ReplyDeleteHi Marty,
DeleteYes, I did block it. The chains would not behave otherwise.
That is a truly awesome design!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is very beautiful and l too love size 80, it is so lacy!

Perfect :-)))
Thank you, Muskaan. The stars actually look more like flowers in the book. I'm afraid I overdid it during blocking.
DeleteThank you Jane, God's Kid and Madtatter80. Might be too much negative spaces for some. The next round should balance it out.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work!
ReplyDeleteThis is just amazing - such perfect chains and blocking! Size 80! You have much more patience than I do!
ReplyDeleteLovely pattern, pity its so open, look forward to seeing the next round
