I was in a slump, a tatting slump. I started this doily way back here so I am very happy to say that the Spring Wiosna 2017 is finally completed. I enjoy working with vintage thread but it has its challenges. I had one ball that was totally rotted and I had already wound a shuttle full before I found out.
The doily is all done with a size 80 threads by J&P Coats. The doily is sitting on a pink 12 inch by 12 inch sheet so you can see the size.
There are a few mistakes in this so I will be keeping this one.
Many thanks to Renulek who provided this pattern on a weekly basis.
It's stunning! Well done for getting it finished in spite of the rotten thread. Understandable that you lose enthusiasm when the thread turns out to be so difficult.
