These flowers were tatted some years ago and already mounted on acid-free cards then. I mount them onto another ATC-sized backing now and add ribbon trims. My girl says they look old-fashioned. Are they ? I was searching for something in my stash last weekend and found some beads and stones here and there, so I gathered them and put all together. Looking at all of them, I just couldn't resist their charms; picked and matched some together, and came up with these hanging ornaments. There are rose quartz, bluestone glass, dyed fresh water pearls, carnelian, unakite, Swarovski crystals, etc. I just love the sparkling effect of Swarovski crystals, the colourful and interesting effect of natural semi-precious stones, the alluring lustre of pearls, plus some interesting man-made beads. And look what I have here! Actually, it is just a normal folded crane, but it is my 10-year old girl who folded it. I think it is quite a fest for a child to fold it at this size, isn't it?

Hello! My name is Elaine (Rei Lee) and I am a tatter from Korea where Tatting has become quite popular these days. Many Korean tatters work hard to spread tatting lace in Korea and I have been tatting for about two years. Tatting is just great and fun! It makes my mind relax as I focus on counting double stitches. The outcome is also adorable. I am a doodler so one day I wanted to draw a tatting pattern. But even with any painting application it was pain in the you know where. So I came to think that it will be great to have a tool that helps you to draw the tatting pattern. My hubby happens to be a programmer and I persuaded him to work on the tool. (and what a persuasion!) That is how this tool is born. The best thing about this tool is that it is FREE! and you don't need to install or purchase anything. Currently tool is on its early stage of development so its functions are very basic. But I believe one can draw quite decent doilies with rings and chains and picots. You can manipulate the chains to make creative very patterns. Basically what it does is that there is an anchor point in the middle and as you make rings and chains the tool automatically copies them along the circle like kaleidoscope. Click the above link to open the tool~. This is how the tool looks. Very simple layout. Isn't it? When you run the app for the first time, you can see the above screen. Here are the brief description of the menus. New - Create a new file Open - Open existing file Save - Save the file Export as image - Save the pattern as .png image. Undo - Cancel the last job Redo - Redo the last job Copy - copy the selected object Paste - paste the copied object Enlarge x2 - enlarge the canvas size twice Fit to content - Crop the canvas size according to the pattern 1. Create Chain - Click on the icon and then click on the canvas to create the chain. 2. Create Ring 3. Copy 4. Paste 5. Undo 6. Redo 7. Zoom out 8. Zoom in 9. Background color - this is only shown on the screen. When you save the image it becomes transparent. We are planning to add more functions such as text, josephine ring etc but the schedule is not set yet. Please add your comments below so we can keep them in mind for the future update. Please enjoy~! 1. This app does not require any installation and it is a web app using internet browser. (We highly recommend using Chrome) 2. Your pattern that you drew using the tool is only saved at your computer with the extension of *.xml 3. We don't hold any rights to your pattern. 4. This too is free but don't copy, reverse engineer or anything that would make us feel bad or regret that we ever made this. Oh please! 5. There is no text tool yet so you will have to use other tool to place text. Go to tutorial

Over the past couple of months, I have drawn a few designs that I would really like to turn into tatting. There is only one problem: I am not proficient in the techniques I would need to use to make that happen. So, this week, I decided to go through my tatting books to see if I could find patterns that I could use for practice. It didn't take me long to find the perfect book: Tatting Patterns by Lyn Morton. This had all of the techniques I was looking to brush up on: sideways facing rings, chains joined to each other, directional changes, and climbing out from one round to the next. The first motif, "Rosie," is very simple and good practice for sideways facing rings, as well as for joining the last chain back to the first. I didn't load enough thread onto my shuttles, so I only completed five repeats: I like Lyn's technique of placing a small picot before beginning the first chain, so that you have something to join back to at the end. I didn't even know that you could make a picot before the first stitch of a chain. This is definitely something I will be using in the future. The next motif, "Hearts and Flowers," is a bit larger, and also has sideways facing rings. I saw this and wanted to use it to practice connecting chains along a straight line. I had to make sure to keep my tension loose so that my chains did not curve too much: After this, I decided to try out "Margaret" to practice changing directions while tatting. The directional changes occur in Round 2, to make each of the flowers. There weren't many instructions on how to to this, so I had to figure it out by myself. It wasn't too bad, I just had to remember not to reverse my tatting and to use the shoelace trick before each center ring. As an added bonus, I discovered that the shoelace trick makes enough of a gap to be used as a place for joining. Lastly, I tatted the "Flat Flower Motif" which utilizes sideways facing rings and climbing out to another round. The spaces between the rings and chains make a good join location for the last round, so no extra picots needed here. I blocked this one very crudely by smashing it down with a wet paper towel and letting it dry on a paper plate. I have a blocking board and rust proof pins, but rarely have the patience to use them :) All in all, tatting motifs from a book is much easier than designing, but I also find it to be more boring and less fulfilling. I wonder how long I will continue tatting from books before I become tempted by the thought of making a new design...

One of my Etsy customers had a question about a vintage pattern from "Old and New Designs in Tatting" by LaCroix, Sophie T., c.1910. The pattern #1143 is very pretty, easy to tat but a little hard to get started and explain. I gave it a try in my "Pansy" hand dyed thread, and had to think for awhile before I figured out how to do it. The picture in the book has the lace turned the opposite way from how it is seen while tatting it, so that made it seem difficult. Also the written pattern has mistakes. So, here is my version: R 4 - 4 - 4 - 4. Reverse work. Ch 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 - 4. Reverse work. *R 4 - 4 - 4 - 4. Turn only the ring over. Bring the ball thread up into position to tat the following chain. Ch 4 + 4 - 4 - 4 - 4 (joining first picot of chain to middle picot of previous ring). Reverse work. Continue in the same way from * for length desired. End by tying the end of the last chain to the middle picot of the last ring. The reason I didn't do a "shoelace trick" at the base of the ring is because the thread positions do not need to be crossed or switched there, only the ball thread needs to be brought up so that the chain can proceed in the reversing direction. That was what seemed right to me, at any rate. The reversing point between the chains does not lie perfectly flat when using ball and 1 shuttle, but is sufficient. It could be made perfectly flat by using 2 shuttles, but a description of the 2 shuttle version will have to wait for another time. Trip coming up! Sunday, June 21, I'll be leaving on a jet plane to travel to Denver, Colorado. I'll be teaching a class there for a few days. So, Friday, June 19 I will de-activate most of my Etsy shop except for the instant download patterns, since I won't be home to do any shipping. I'll re-activate the rest of my shop by June 26.

That is just how I do it, it's an alternative method to do it. Actually I don't use to avoid the "blip" of color that often. Refer also to Jane Eborall's page here: www.janeeborall.freeservers.com/noblips.pdf and Frivole's blog post here: leblogdefrivole.blogspot.com/2013/09/something-new.html
