Good news – I have finally
updated all the patterns and links on my pattern & design page.
(phew ! But this does not guarantee that all
patterns are in pdf, teehee !!!)
Bad news – I still have to work
the archives to update my tutorials page
(shudder
!)
Worse news – this is an admin
post - dry, brut, sec!
(sorry Y , but if you enjoy your wine that way, Cheers åå)
Pattern page overview
All patterns are first linked to
the respective blog post in blue, even if a pdf (link in pink) is available. There is always
so much more in a post than a pdf and I encourage users to check the post
first.
It is over 2 years now that I
have been associated with the inspiring, talented and helpful Online Tatting
Class group (or “gang”, as Mel puts it)
of creative tatters. I continue to learn a lot, and real time interaction is
very exhilarating. Many of my patterns, projects, and tutorials have been
shared with the class. If a pattern has been shared or published elsewhere,
there is a link to the class index /publication in red letters. One can access
logs for the class through the index.
I have shifted the Designing
section from my tutorials to my patterns page. This includes design ideas,
deconstructions, and some of diverse paths I have used in my design process. One
never knows when a budding designer might find some path or design useful.
Pattern update
Many weeks this year were
dedicated to the spring garland - mainly the presentation; actual tatting was quick and fun. And I recently wound it around my little bun which I wrap on a bit above the nape, and the tatted veni & hair looked gorgeous!
I had hoped to add tassels at the ends, but didn't get around to it.
I tried tatting 3D jasmine buds - the buds look fine, but the green needs working.
All pdfs for the Spring
Garland pattern are now complete and uploaded to My
Patterns page with the respective links. Each post is also updated. As I stated, I request tatters to visit the respective post for more tips, pictures, and explanation.
Here are the final pattern pdf links :
mustard
fields pictorial in post (and as part of complete garland pdf)
Each part and complete pattern
was shared with Online
Tatting Class throughout April and lots of fun and wonderful ideas emerged (some quite ambitious as per moi ;-P ) -
enough to keep one busy for a lifetime !
Judy kindly shared tips about working some parts of the pattern in
needle tatting. I hope to get around to it some day. Many many thanks, Judy :-)
I also keep forgetting to mention
that at the end of each post there is now an option (actually 3 options ‘coz I haven’t bothered to find out how to delete
the extras ;-P) to print or save the entire post as a pdf. Click on that Print / PDF button to save the post as desired.
Hope you enjoy your weekend with lots of lace being created :-)
Always have a muskaan on your face :-D
