happy Endrucks 1

Pin It now!

 Frau Endrucks would certainly have been a happy, satisfied designer to see what one tatter has done with merely one pattern from her collection of 44! Following is only part 1 showcasing what Krystyna Mura has accomplished with pattern #31 from the German book ‘Die Schiffchen-Spitszen’,1920, by Frau Eleonore Endrucks-Leichtenstern. 

Krystyna worked on the doilies and numerous derivatives from 2021 to 2023. Since the original pattern tended to cup, she worked on alternatives to flatten out the doily. All these patterns are now compiled in the following pdf -

The cupped original pattern was turned into a parasol for a doll. It also works well as a bowl or a basket! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1I7EEuylPwp5pqIvgI1yAUYlULukV0D8Z/view

Or even a lantern or lamp shade!

Krystna shares her thoughts and options to make the doily lay flat without compromising on the pattern per se. Above is Option 1,

Option 2, and

Option 3.

As you can see in her pdf, there are even more doilies she tatted than the 6 shown in the collage!

Further play with sequence and colours resulted in the above version. The possibilities are endless!

Of the 6 rounds, working only the first two rounds gives this cute motif.

Rounds 1 to 3 result in this gorgeous rendition, and

Rounds 1 to 4 result in another decorative motif or coaster.

Rounds 1 and 2 covering a cabochon.

And finally a heavily embellished doily as a window decoration which she calls Stained Glass Rosette.

Following the theme of this post, we would like to inform you that we have renamed our Coasters and Doilies directory to Circles and Doilies in order to cover all circular motifs and medallions alongside larger models.

So, please stick around for the next two posts showcasing more derivatives and applications of pattern #31 by Krystyna Mura!
