Live has been very busy for me the past month or so. But I did finally finish some tatting.
and what did I tat you ask??
A Seahorsedragon by Anne Bruvold and Debbie Arnold
I had started out wanting to tat something for the cover of my Kindle e-book. I was seeing edgings in my mind, with maybe a freeform flower or 2 framed in the center. I chose 3 different but coordinating skeins of HDT by Sherry Pence ~ LadyShuttleMaker. All size 20 labeled, Seaweed, Confetti and Spring Poppies.
As I started the first edging that I chose, it just wouldn't click for me. and I kept hearing whispers in my head saying "seahorsedragon, seahorsedragon,..." So I untatted the 6 rings and chains that I had done of the edging (it was HDT after all) and started the seahorsedragon.
and here she is
Yes, HDTs need to be saved. anyway, that is a beautiful seahorse with those three HDTs combined.
ReplyDeleteSo, so pretty she is, in these soft, pastels! Like a breath of... ahem... Spring!
ReplyDeleteLovely tatting. crumby weather!
May your crocuses ascend soon.

your seahorse is very nice
ReplyDeleteI love the Seahorse Dragon pattern, and yours turned out beautifully! Is your Kindle filled with books about seahorses and dragons? ; )
ReplyDeleteSo delicate! Yep, the little voice was right!
ReplyDeleteAnd it was snowing here too. sigh.
ReplyDeletethank you Zarina, Fox, Bonnie, Diane, and Michelle.
ReplyDeleteMy Kindle has quite a few books, some of them might have seahorses and dragons, but not all.
