I have a new tatting tee shirt and wanted some red metallic earrings to go with some of the red bling on the shirt. We were off to see some local sites and Jane K. tossed a ball of thread at me. So we are in the car. I had an empty shuttles but no scissors, now I needed to come up with an earring design using one shuttle. I had to be able to make both earrings.
So here is what I came up with. I made eight daisies, (7 picot) then a ring of 8 ds then 5 daisies. Leaving a space of thread I repeated for the second earring. Once we returned to Jane's she gave me access to her basket of beads and I added a bead to the end of each line of daisies and earring findings. I call these my 30-minute earring. Simple but effective.
Truth is these would probably take less than 30 minutes to make.

Fabulous earrings
ReplyDeleteNice earrings.
ReplyDeleteThose beads make me think of the fuschia flowers. Maybe a designing idea to explore? ;)
