Tatted set for Pati

Last time I mentioned that I was tatting a black set for my friend’s daughter. I am very pleased with this. I used black Liesbeth thread (size 20), jet AB Swarovski crystals (more than 50) and black classic dagger drops. Inspiration comes from an old insertion found here. I like the effect very much and definitely I will tat the same for myself!

New motif

Recently I have not shown too much of my tatting, but not because I am doing nothing. Yesterday I finished a black bracelet, and I am still tatting a gorgeous set of black earrings, bracelet and necklace (maybe choker) with a lot of Jet AB Swarovski crystals. I have to finish the necklace and the whole set will be ready. It will be a gift for my friend’s daughter. She is going to wear it on her prom ball this week. So you can see –I am busy with tatting. No complaint about this – I am really happy, that others like my tatting, not only me.

 

Here is a black bracelet I finished yesterday. It has found a new owner today. I used a black Aida 20.

In a meantime I made up a new motif, (which I have transformed into an earring). I found an interesting motif somewhere in the internet, modified a little bit. I think the result is quite nice.

I used an ecru Aida 20.

Forget-me-nots –tatted lace earrings and Ariel’s necklace

Last week I bought a lovely hand dyed Egyptian thread Lizbeth called Turquoise Twist. So I have made these pretty earrings – they look like forget-me-nots, don’t they?

And using the same thread and pearls and pearl seed beads I tatted a necklace, which my daughter called Ariel’s necklace, according to her favourite Disney’s character.
