Still working on the star motif. This time I've made it in Lizbeth #159 Easter Eggs and #638 Christmas Green in size 20.
Making it with contrasting colors really brings out the pattern, showing which shuttle was used where. It changes its look quite a bit from using the same thread throughout. I've also made a bit of a change in the last round - again - trying to decide just how I want it. Not sure about this version, either.
The TIAS has reached Day 3. Now I'm waiting somewhat impatiently for Day 4! I haven't counted how many people have joined this year but it looks like quite a few. It's fun to be tatting with other tatters from all over the world, isn't it? Just seeing everyone's version of the TIAS and reading their comments enhances the enjoyment of being a part of this adventure. Thank you, Jane!

This look good I like the black it outlines well!
ReplyDeleteFun to see how different tatting patterns look in different thread colors!
ReplyDeleteI'm not doing the TIAS this year, but I love to watch everyone's progress.
It's strange how different colours change a pattern, lovely combination.
ReplyDeleteI am not doing the TIAS as I have injured my hand and cannot tat at the moment.
