“Jamie” by Liyarra

Look at this lusciouness by Liyarra, over at InTatters!
This is the pattern for her avatar picture.
What a fantastic design. Liyarra!

I had the honour of test-tatting Jamie, which will appear in the Danish Tatters Association 50th edition publication in the near future.

7” across

This was rather confronting at first, what with my directional dilemmas, but once I got started, I got so excited about the design I was able to overcome the foul  language situation. : ))

The thread is Daiso, #40. Thanks, Wendy - it was perfect for a test-tat for the colour is very easy on the eye in a challenging situation.


Next, I needed a smaller something to play with,
so I started this...

    1. Sorry but it is not a book but a magazine sent to members of the Guild 3 times a year.

  4. Both designs are stunning! The larger motif is truly elegant. The colors in the smaller one really make it pop!

  5. Honestly, I'm really glad I'm not the only one that seems to have foul language flow freely from time to time :) Liyarra is such an inspiration! Beautiful patterns - both of them. Those long bare threads would have me in a tizzy - but you show nice, even lengths!
