As mentioned in my previous post, our September game in the Endrucks 1920 Project Facebook group has begun. Leaf Me Endrucks (#LeafMeEndrucks). Instead of rewording, I am going to copy/paste the instructions.
GAME OF THE MONTH โ Leaf Me Endrucks Sep2024
๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ฟUse the hashtag #LeafMeEndrucks and #Endrucks1920Project when you post for this game.
We have several beautiful leaves in our Foliage
Directory. However, for September we have decided to use only three E15 Leaf
Doodle patterns because the possibilities to play with these are endless!
๐๐Tat as many E15 leaves as you like!
(PDF links are at the end of this post)
๐๐๐ฅฌ๐ฟAnd if you want to extend your fun โฆ.. You can tat one or more leaves from any of the three patterns. Then you can go ahead and make any tweaks you want such as ----
๐ฅฌChange the shape โ make it long, broad, bent, twisted, 3D. No two leaves are identical, so you have free reign!
๐Change the colours depending on whether you visualise them as nascent spring, mature summer, verdant monsoon, marcescent, or fall leaves, or funky psychedelics.
๐ฟApply any tatting effects, techniques, or textures, to emphasize certain characteristics.
๐Embellish with decorative picots, beads, buttons, or cabochon, โฆ 2D or 3D
๐Use as desired โ on a card, as appliquรฉ, as tree ornament, as jewellery, as decorative piece, garland or wreath, etc.
๐ฟ๐๐ฟTell us about your visualization, share your notes and stitch count, tell us about the threads you used, show us your process pictures,.....
They tat up very quickly and don't require too much thread. And creating little tweaks can be guaranteed fun for both new and experienced designers! Hence we expect to see a lot of leaves breezing into our group! Ninetta and I are ready to rake in all your leaves, so time to get started!

๐๐๐A very special thanks and hugs to Ninetta for allowing me a break from hosting the games these last few months! There is a whole bunch of tasks, mostly behind the scenes, that require our attention during and after each game; not to mention other related tasks in the Project and our other commitments. She has been a constant source of support and shoulders the burden unflinchingly! Words cannot express my deep gratitude. ๐๐๐
