This roundup should've been posted a year back! In the Endrucks FB group, our game of the month for September 2024 was Leaf Me Endrucks (#leafmeendrucks) which I posted in my blog as well - https://tipsaroundthehome.blogspot.com/2024/09/leafy-game.html where we had 3 E15 Leaf Doodle patterns to choose from.
Better late than never and you are in for quite a scroll since this is merely part 1. Ninetta and I were extremely satisfied with the enthusiastic participation and almost every member tatted more than one leaf, several with tweaks to suit their imagination! And the way the motifs were applied is also inspiring! Many shared their experience and some details, some of which are included here. Nearly all of the participants were very happy with the pattern(s) and the game. All the pics are listed in alphabetical order of participant's name here and not chronologically merely because the former makes it easier to organise them in our folders ;-P

1. Adriana Tomanin
For the choker and earring parure she used the #1 leaf pattern.
And she added pearls for this pair of green earrings which used the #2 pattern!
2. Anna BonelliWhat a wonderful autumn collage! And the inscription reads (Google translate)-
AS IN AUTUMN THE LEAVES RISE ONE AFTER ANOTHER,
UNTIL THE BRANCH SEE ALL ITS SPOILS ON THE EARTH...
3. Annamaria O'BrienThis lovely overlapping application on napkin rings in fall colours was meant for a wedding a few weeks back. She calls it the Autumn Leaf Swirl and used Lizbeth 20, 40, & 80 and her own bead mix Frosted Autumn. These are the #2 leaves again.
4. Brookie HeightsmenThis time Brookie made a little gnome with two leaves tatted together and a few embellishments!!!
5. Cindy Dunham"My sunflower is complete."
6. Cynthia MullinaxIsn't this tiny! Cynthia said this was the first though pics of any that followed were not shared.
7. Debbie Arnold"
Progression of leaf design, loosely based on E25."
Her pics clearly show how the design process/development!
8. Debra Fitchen Cox"
I decided to use the leaves for my journal cover."
"
Having a play with embossing powder and my "creative" tatting elements."
These are glued to the cover of her journal! Such pride of place.
9. Frauke KlumppFrauke absolutely enjoyed tatting and playing with the leaves! She thought the first one resembled a pear or gourd!
"
The other one I want to make earrings, it’s one part of the leave pattern but made mistakes so started new."
I think it could well be a pea pod, right?
In this red version, she can imagine some grapes there!
She wanted to make a mask for her costume joining two #1 leaves, but it was small. So she tried a larger version below ...
"
Had so much fun with these that I had to try again 
this time with liz metallic thread size 20, col 322."

11. Jessica Hansen
Nice colour combination!
12. Jiamrat SupapolAll three versions individually.
And joined together in a common stem with a flower in the center! As usual, Jiamrat's models are always pleasant and she has quick fingers!
We hope you enjoyed Part 1 and look forward to the next part? We are only counting the number of participants, not the number of leaves they tatted since it became really difficult to keep count as you will soon see.
Please use the hashtag #Endrucks1920Project, and cite the name of the designer and pattern when you post your version on any social media platform. And the hashtag for this game is #LeafMeEndrucks.
Thanks to all our participants - some are new while most are repeat offenders, LOL
to be continued (part 2)...
