Practice makes Perfect

Practice makes perfect or so they say,  BUT there is a (mini) pattern error in every one.  I continued on and the hearts can still be great giveaways to promote tatting.

Tatted with  Manuela Size 20 color 213, this is the Butterfly Heart by Irene Woo.

One of my friends asked how long it takes to tat one heart, I said about 45 minutes but that is without stops which rarely happens. Two full clover shuttles will be enough for three hearts.

Valentines Day

 I'm sitting here eating some chocolate and I just finished this lovely heart bookmark for my partner. He has a few tatted bookmarks already but not a heart one.

I have used a Manuela Size 20 color 213. The larger heart is one of my favorites to tat, the Butterfly Heart by Irene Woo.  The smaller one on the end of the tail is the Celtic Heart 2013 by Ruth Perry. We will be shopping later and I will have a chance to pick up a book for him and slip this in.

I've tatted the Butterfly Heart many times before and coincidentally wrote about it on Valentines Day 2015.

Wishing you all a wonderful Valentines Day.
