No.....23

Now I have also finished another tatted piece. This one is called 'sahmura' it to is from Jon Yusoff's book Elegant Tatting Gem'. This time I used size 20 Lizbeth called Harvest Orange, Med.  This one went pretty fast for me.

No.....22

Here is the tatted piece I finally finished last night.
I'm working on finishing all the motifs in Jon Yusoff's book called 'Elegant Tatting Gems. This one is called 'firus'. I used Lizbeth size 40 called Spice Cake.  I don't know why I had so much trouble with this one, and then finally,  I just did it.   The top of the flower stands away from the piece.  It sure is different, and nice to.

No....21

Back to working in "Elegant Tatting Gems" book by Jon Yusoff.   This one is called 'adan'.  I used Lizbeth thread size 40 #167 called Jungle Greens.   I wish I would of used a different color this time, just more for contrast on here.

No.....20 (a, b, and c)


This is a pattern by Samantha Melnychuk 2000.   After I had already started the last row, I noticed that she had forgot to include a bead in the pattern.   No... I wasn't going to take it apart for that, but I will definitely make this pattern again.  I used Lizbeth size 20 #376.  There should be another bead at the base of the last ring.


I made this one again....this time I added the bead, but I forgot to make the ring...!!!   It looks different, and I like it, so it will just be pattern #2 for this one.  I'm still going to try and make it right yet...not while watching TV though....it looks like a finer thread, but it isn't...it's just my picture taking.




Motif #3...finally, this one is according to the pattern that I used...the last row has a ring, and another bead added.   Actually, I like them all....oh, there is another one that I did, but instead of starting with 8 rings, I used 9.  I gave it to a friend of mine, and she like it better because the beads in the center aren't as close to each other.  I guess maybe I should ask her to take a picture of it for me......

No.....18

Another motif designed by Jon Jusoff.   This one is called 'adiratna'.  This time I did it in size 40 Lizbeth thread #694. Needed a change,  and I like using a finer thread.   I also wanted to throw a different color in there for a change...
