This pattern comes from the book Tatted Jewellery by Lyn Morton (not yet available her in the US, but available in the UK)
I used a single strand of DMC Metallic Gold Embroidery Floss to tat with and large seed beads. I added a very tiny (2-2) ring at the base of the earrings to accomodate the erring wires.
The patterns in this book are stunning eyecandy and I can't wait to tat up some more!
About Me
- Carolivy
- I have been a crafter of all sorts for many years, and really love working with Paper and Threads. I am loving the design work I am doing now. I really seem to be getting back into my "art", even if I am doing it by computer now, instead of actually getting dirty while drawing. ;-) I have been avid about Thread Arts since I was a kid, learning to Crochet at 7, then Knit, Embroider, Needle Lace and finally Needle Tat. I love to design as well and am looking forward to taking the Needle Tatting that further step as well.
Did you order your copy direct from Lyn Morton? I'm drooling (and green with envy). Please do show us more, once you are ready. It helps pass the time until we can get our copies!
