More Martha

#13 - 100 Motif Challenge

This was tatted in #12 Finca, which I am still enjoying.  

Not bad for a fickle lover of threads. Note, the tail.  

I am improving since Miranda's bookmark came in the mail.

Now I enjoy playing around with cords  and all the
many choices there are for designing them.

Oh, yes, stating the obvious:  I did not use a picot gauge. Next time.

  4. Nice play on color. Everyone does their picots differently so it doesn't bother me that they are not exactly as Martha used. Some people like big lacy ones, others like tiny ones, some like long and pointy....there's always personal preference and it sometimes depends on the item. Some need more "dressing" and others need less. Keep playing! Develop your own style along the way!
