tatted heart



Well yesterday I told you about a lovely blog, by Frivole   Further searching and I happened upon this lovely lady's Etsy shop too, http://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/LaCossette

The Heart Within - TATTING PATTERN with variations
 and could not resist buy a delightful heart pattern with instant download, yesterday evening I eventually settled down to a little tatting and here is what I managed...

The initial instruction was to load up two shuttles with the same thread, I could only find 1 empty shuttle yesterday, so I only completed the instructions down to the first split ring, but still it was very nice to be curled up on the sofa and tatting, I did a little telly catch up and watched an episode of the White Queen, have to say I'm thoroughly enjoying the series and love the costumes.

This evening I will probably continue by use a tatting needle rather than shuttle for the second half and see how that manages.

Back to the pattern; it is really well written and has 3 variations included with it, so very good value I think.

Tatting Shuttle AERLIT (Rose & Lilac)  -  Vintage Series


 She also sell the sweetest shuttles I ever seen, so I'm planning on getting a couple of these.
