What do you think? In each corner will be 8 tiny Miyuki Rocailles that I got ages ago from Crazymom that I have been saving for the perfect project. This is it!. She sent me red ones and these green multi-coloured ('variegated' in bead-talk is?) Also, I used three Josephine Knots of 14 ds, which is larger than the regular ones I usually do (12).
Thanks, Crazymom!
I have no idea what happened here. After the edging, one would think I would find this a quite easy tat. Wrong.
The re-tat has begun.
The edging is looking great!! But I would hate to think how long this pattern is going to take to be done!!! :)))
ReplyDeleteThe green in the corner is just perfect!!!! You have such a great eye for this. I love the pattern too.
ReplyDeletethe red colour are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe edging looks lovely and I love your pattern, sorry your motif went a bit cockeyed.

that little bit of green is interesting. i would bead a little leave in that little corner after all the tatting's done. Would you? (Oops, am i handing out another challenge? LOL)
ReplyDeleteGreat corner treatment! Very clever! I love the thread and the beads. I'm guessing you'll finish this edging in no time. ; )
ReplyDeleteThe corner looks nice.
ReplyDeleteRemember that putting beads on the core thread will make the chain a little bit longer. You might want to put them on the green thread instead, or else adjust the stitch count. This will probably help it lie better. Otherwise, I don't see any mistakes in the motif, although I can tell you from experience you really have to watch when you make one ring and when you make two.
The beads I sent work great with this! I have some more colors if you would like to try them.
ReplyDeleteI miss seeing The Cat in the banner....
CM - Aren't they great! Thanks! Yah, I miss The Cat...
