Recently I was involved in an exchange that asked you to share a tatted bell with the recipient. I made the pinkish bell using rings only and bare thread. I did add one row of chains at the bottom row. I just increased rings or bare thread as required to make the ball shape. I didn't think this bell would travel well so I made more.I completed the two flat bells below following a pattern by Judith Connors in the book Contemporary Tatting, New Designs from an Old Art.
This is a great pattern and uses SCMR, throw rings and split rings I didn't have the type of bead she suggested so I made some new ones.
Again I changed my mind and these two bells did not make there way to the recipient, rather I may keep them for myself.
I really like the 3D one, it’s impressive! Good job.
ReplyDeleteI like your bells! The pink one intrigues me. Changing your mind is allowed when creating gifts ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad that you found my design and pattern useful. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe pind is very sweet I would put a pink fuzzy ball clapper in side or a white one🙂
