She is called Joyce's Angel but she will be going to my sister who has a holiday tree full of angels and her favorite color is blue. This is a pattern by Martha Ess and available on her blog here.
I tatted this using my never ending spool of Wonderfil thread. It works up in a size 80 to a final size of 6 cm or 2.5 inches. I added beads to the first six picots or the pattern gives stitch count for a halo.
There is also another discussion of this Angel using a half moon split ring.
With the Wonderfil thread still on the shuttles I made up these quick earrings found on Facebook site of Svetlana Borovik or on Youtube video here. I do not like how the two ends finish up so I have an idea on how to make these sit better on the ear wires.
Special gift for your sister. The earrings look like easy tatting and complicated threading? Very effective and a nice size. Thanks for all the links.
