Motif 7

-

ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH........this is WAY too addictive....

I just HAD to do the last pattern that I had printed out. It was just sitting there all lonely and about to cry, wondering why it had been left out when all the other patterns had been done......
So here it is - happy to be included.
(anthropomorphizing tatting.....hmmm....is that part of the tatting sickness??? Time to stop motifs for a while I think)

I adore this pattern. The way it twists and turns and makes you think. Can be a bit tricky but always a lovely result.

    Wow! I wasn't sure which of your beautiful motifs to comment on because they are all so lovely. I've now added your link to my blog list so that I can see the new additions before they hit the 25 motif challenge site.

    I look forward to seeing the next one.

Belinda Spence put up a challenge in the facebook group Tatting the Australian Way. https://www.facebook.com/groups/847655165276159/ It was a free pattern and anyone could participate. Well....it LOOKED easy enough. But it actually has a more than usual level of concentration required, as we pretty much all found out! First attempt and I made the rookie mistake of thinking it was a rock along easy pattern so I used Alenalea Rako HDT...... and suffered the consequences. After attempt number 1.... after cutting out a repeat of the pattern because I joined in the wrong place (twice),I ended up untatting 9 rings in an attempt to not run out of thread.

This one might not count cos it is not strictly a stand alone motif. But it was so cute I just had to see if it would slip on in there!!! This is the centre of the larger project I have just started. MOTIF 8 The pattern was designed by Lene Bjorn and was found in Orkis Bladet - the magazine of the Danish Tatting Association (Dansk Orkisforening). However there is some controversy surrounding this one. It is also in Lyn Morton's book Tatting Patterns......either way it is a lovely motif! The thread is Garden Afternoon by Yarnplayer. Size 20. Given to me by my best mate Dantatter.
