I tried something different here. Instead of a Catherine Wheel join only at the join at the top I employed them at the sides of the chain as well, and as a consequence, I am not pleased with the way the chain fits.
Oh dear! I shall have to try again - the outer chain will have to be longer on the sides perhaps.
Other than that tightness, I do like the pattern and the overall feel of the shape.
Anybody want to try the pattern out for me? I need two tatters to test my scribblings which I have yet to commit to paper in a finished pattern. I shall get to it over the weekend.
I would be happy to!
ReplyDeleteHi Fox
ReplyDeleteI would be happy to test it for you, I think it looks good and you could interweave the inner chains?
Have a lovely weekend

Ps I forgot him love to Gian
I would be happy to test for you. I think I just got an 8 sided tatament yesterday from FireMountainGems.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to test it! Lately that's the way I've been being inspired to tat -- testing is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I understand. I think I see JK's at the same spots on the other one, too. I do see the difference in the chains, but to me it looks more like a tension issue.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely design, which I know you will soon perfect!
Thank you Marty, Ladytats, Margaret and umintsuru! I shall write up the pattern on the weekend and send it off to you. Four is even better than two! Thanks again.

It's a really neat design,I like it's 3D effect. I'd love to be a test tatter if you need another.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gemini,
DeleteI have enough for this one. More in fact than I initially required, but I might contact you should I have another to test if that is okay with you.
Fox : )
You have such beautiful work, it would be my pleasure to test. Thanks!
DeleteThe trouble I have is finding centers like you have used here. Found some, but never the same count for connecting, err!!
ReplyDeleteHi Barbara,
DeleteI have the same problem! Sometimes if you tat the centre to fit, it is effective, instead of using a metal finding.
