Pinkness

Well, it is almost pink!  Maybe more of a fuschia.

Some of Suneeti's #50 Altan Basak looks good in this design by Karey Solomon.  It is one of my all-time favourite patterns. Tatted in combination with #20 Lizbeth.

Being sparse with the beads, though the brand new ones beckon me each time I begin a new motif, I believe my tatting is looking more refined, as I am concentrating more on the individual stitch as I tat, not being so driven to complete a pattern quickly.  The attention to tension is paying off. Bit by bit...

  1. Oh, yes, that is beautiful tatting! A perfect design to show off in two colors, too. And you're right, sometimes less is more with the beads.

  2. Thank you!

    Miranda, I am learning! The urge to overindulge is always lurking. Like some folks with cookies, with beads, I have little self control!

    I love it when I get the thumbs up from you!
