Lost....

Ok so it’s been a while… don’t ask me - there were just lot of things happening around me that I just couldn’t find time to tat…

I keep feeling guilty about it :-( after all I have a challenge to face up to! I know there is time but I am just a little anxious to finish it fast.

Right now I am fiddling with Cluny leaves and I won’t stop till I do it. I learnt the pattern from Mimi’s website and kept trying till I got it right. The thing is I now know the technique but cannot somehow work a motif out of it. I keep getting stuck on the second leaf, and then it just gets cut. Arghhhh so annoying!

So I have decided that the next post will be on cluny leave and looks like both (Cluny leaf and I) are adamant on this.

And the next thing that I learnt is - Onion ring. Man, I keep trying to make a spider out of it and it more looks like a flower… oomph!

So you see I am very touchy at the moment regarding tatting and have quite made up my mind to learn these, make and then post.

So please bear… :-) don’t worry I will get it right!

Motif #4



Motif No: 4 :- This is Jeanne Lugert tatted 3-D rose.... My first attempt with split rings!

I am not sure if the rose is just right and if I have done total justice to it... I really liked it so I thought of giving it a try.

Motif #3



Motif No 3:- A tatted lace for my dupatta... this is a 4 meter lace for a dupatta for my new salwar...

I tatted this lace last saturday.... still need to sew it up on my dupatta...

Motif # 2

Motif No.2:- A Tatted heart. I took this pattern from Melissa's Blog Honeybee's Bliss and found this really cute.

I tried color combination with this though the original one was with one color. There are few more hearts that I want to try out.

Hopefully this weekend will give me more time to tat as my biggest distraction "My husband" is away...
