25 motif challenge....
I was asked by a friend to complete the 25 motif challenge with her this year. I have not really felt I had the time to try this before. But as this is a new year and I am up for a bit of a challenge and a bit of fun tatting this year I guess it fits right in there!!
MOTIF 1
Pretty thread, Jenni - now, on to the second!
ReplyDeleteThat is a nice motif and a very wonderful color you used. Have fun with this challange i have been thinking about doing it also.
ReplyDeleteI love that thread. Well done.
ReplyDeleteGreat start! I love this motif and is that a manuela thread?
ReplyDeleteLiyarra, your work is absolutely gorgeous! I've seen Mary Konior's Masquerade done twice this year and it's so pretty. I think I'll have to make it for one of my 25 Motif Challenge pieces.
ReplyDeleteLovely colours! It is a pity that this brand has been discontinued.
ReplyDeleteLove this Jenni. I'll look forward to your designs.

Your masquerade motif is so pretty in that variegated thread. But I couldn't help but notice that this first entry is a bit small, compared to the work you showcase on your Picasa image gallery on your blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm quite excited to see what motifs you choose for future projects. Great start and keep up the wonderful work!
You did a lovely job with that motif. Much better than my efforts.
ReplyDeleteYes it is a pity - I still have 2 of the 3 I bought stashed away. LOL
ReplyDeleteJust waiting for the "right" project.
This looks beautiful. Nice choice of thread for the design!
ReplyDeleteHey, Liyarra! I follow your stuff on InTatters and didn't know you had the blog! Great!
ReplyDeleteIsn't Mary Konior the best! This is a lovely design and the thread is wonderful. I have never tried it and I suppose I never will now that is is discoed.
The Library inclusion at the bottom of the blog is good.... too good.... LOL!
Fox : )
I love this motif and I love the thread you chose! It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWelcome Aboard - all the way from Australia! Are you having summer right now? Can I come visit? LOL !
ReplyDeleteWhat a great start to your blog! Viewing your slideslow is like looking into a kaleidoscope! It's interesting that clicking on your photos leads to the captions on a Picasa album. It will take awhile for me to click through them!
I can't believe the amount of tatting you've done in only 6 years, with many large pieces!
I'm interested in your tatting history and how this all got started for you. I would have to agree that you're definitely addicted!
Marilee's "Arches" doily is spectacular in the Carribbean and turquoise thread combo! Just beautiful!
I believe the motif from Mary Konior is called "Patchwork". I've only done it in white thread, but it looks beautiful in this thread.
I'll be looking forward to seeing even more of your beautiful tatting.
Thanks Kathy - yep it is Patchwork - just mislabelled - Masquerade is here waiting to be blocked!
ReplyDeleteIf you like 40 C plus temps - yeah sure come for a visit - always room for a tatter here!!
Thank you for your nice comments.
Oh! Pretty! I've grown rather fond of "Patchwork" of late! It is a lovely pattern and I love the thread you worked it in!
