over and over and over and....

#14 - 100 Motif Challenge   Design by Julie Patterson
Lots of grief.  I said I would not tat this again, but of course I had to.  In  the final version (there were about four false starts) I used  #16 Finca, which was way too soft for this design.  But, there you have it.  Moving on.

While out in my neighbourhood yesterday, I was stopped short by a garden in which I saw colours that looked very familiar.  Then I realized what I was noticing. Don't you just love Mother Nature?  A tatter for sure.

  2. you are right, she must be a tatter, she can really come up with gorgeous colorways. I suspect she is a dyer of HDTs. I wonder if you could tat a hydrangea? I know Linda Davies has done many 3D flowers, but don't know if she has designed one of them.

  6. Your perseverance has paid off once again. Brava, bella!

    Isn't it amazing how expertly Nature's colorplays work out to be? All the best color combinations are found in nature. (IMHO)

    A certain angel I am working on this weekend has me tatting, cutting, starting over, tatting, cutting...so I take strength from your diligence.
