I was supposed to do
this post in November, but I got entangled in other stuff and completely forgot
about it! Better late, despite the extra task of re-inking the pics to change
Nov to Dec.
Good friend Margaret Davies (https://margaretsdesignercards.blogspot.com/) has been a very active participant in our FB events, sharing her tweaks and adaptations as well as her trials and patterns. (https://tipsaroundthehome.blogspot.com/2022/09/aug-roundup-1.html).
ENLARGED ENDRUCKS' HEART by Margaret Davies - click on pdf link to download the pattern - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1G2AboS4amzg5HgLGKoZ6X-bGNrLZBLCt/view
When she posted her pic, someone thought it looked like an angel, and she again took up the gauntlet and converted the enlarged heart into an angel! We asked her to share her pattern for our November FB event and she enthusiastically agreed, sending in the written patterns.
While tatting it to prepare for the game, #tagmeEndrucks, I noticed that it made a beautiful bell when turned on it's head. Thus we have 3 patterns in one - angelic!
ENDRUCKS' ANGEL and BELL by MARGARET DAVIES - pdf link to the pattern - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aq202-ESOzP_DLlA1bQ1mz3unyTTrpwr/view
This is my completed angel, worked in 2 colours for the tat-along. You have seen parts of it in 2 earlier posts (links below) but not the complete model. This is such a versatile pattern in the sense that we can follow different paths, use different techniques, embellish in numerous ways, and use in different ways, too.
For the tat-along I deliberately left out the beads in my model though the diagram and written pattern in the pdf follow Margaret's beaded models.
I will need multiple posts to showcase all the models that came in, some with very interesting tweaks or displays. Stay tuned to be inspired! Meanwhile hope you enjoy our little gift to adorn your festive season.
Many many thanks, Margaret, and hope to see continued participation ❤

Trying again to comment. Well done Margaret and all those who see a bell in an angel!
ReplyDeleteWonder why Blogger is being a nuisance, Jane 💝 Thanks for persevering and for appreciating 💗🌹💗
DeleteThank you for your kind, I have been enjoying this, I did do another tweak with the bell, I am sure I posted the picture, when I got to button for the bell I joined to the chain did a small chain of three stitches and then did a ring beads around the outside and larger bead inside, closed the ring did another chain of three stitches before attaching to the end of the previous chain and then finished the chain. this let the bell look as if the clanger was hanging. I will send you picture.
