MatheMagical
Bells (2D & 3D)
Why
do I do it?! Thinking it would go faster since I already had patterns and
diagrams for the MatheMagical series, I chose this for pdf. Sigh, it took me over
5 evenings to get it all straightened, with Numerous changes in the diagrams.
And
yet, if made again, I would work the 3D bell differently as highlighted in a note.
It
is easier to work the 3 panels of a 3D bell in counterclockwise (turning right
at the base without connecting chain) direction rather than the clockwise
(turning left after the long base chain) path I took. But I already had pics,
and had already spent ginormous amount of time, so let it remain as a Note.
I
have also added the count for the silver 3D bell, in case somebody prefers a
narrow version.
I’d
taken pics of the 3D bell alongside all other bells I could find – glass,
silver, wood, papier maché, etc. Whether taken singly or in as a collection,
the pics came out either tacky or ‘overkill’ (hubby’s observation).
So,
why do I do it? It’s not as if my patterns are popular or anything.
I
guess, it’s just this commitment I made to myself and I’d like to at least see
Some series through to the end, including the posting! I won’t even think of
all the other series I began and either didn’t complete, or didn’t post the
final few.

Brava! You are an inspiration!! I would have abandoned the project. You completed it! I do like the pattern. Once the work load decreases I will be tatting it. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAwww thanks, Mel 💗 One task struck off my mile-long list 😄
DeleteIt's a very pretty bell, both the 2D AND the 3D versions of it. I'm glad you saw this through to the completed project, pattern and all.
