WIP - Tatting




Please excuse the not-so great picture of one of my current tatting WIPs.  Similarly to the bobbin lace butterfly I posted earlier this month, I had the best intentions of completing this piece last year.  Obviously, that did not happen!  I hope that by posting it, it will give ma an incentive to complete this piece once and for all.  What can I say, the pattern no longer interest me and it's hard to pick up my shuttles.

Based on the latest two WIPs someone may think I have a thing for butterflies.  That's really not the case, in fact it's probably one of the reasons work on both pieces has slowed down.

  4. Thank you everyone for your nice comments! Seeing that I am almost done, I will try to finish.

    Fox - this is an old Workbasket pattern. Unfortunately I don't what issue, since I found this copy in a vintage tatting book I picked up at a library sale.
