I finished two bookmarks this weekend. Both of them are made with Star Gem Size 30 thread. The heart is a pattern from Cathy Bryant's book "Tatting". I added the little ring at the bottom to give it a more pronounced heart shape. The lavender and green variegated bookmark is a free pattern by Jon Yusoff called Chinese Coin Bookmark that you can find on her blog. I had a lot of fun tatting it. Thank you Jon for sharing your beautiful patterns! These are my motifs #24 and #25. Hard to believe I finished the challenge already, ahead of schedule. It has been so much fun participating that I definitely want to do another 25 motif challenge!
You are welcome, Brigitte.
ReplyDeleteI like the way you add in the spiral cord (is it spiral tatting?) for the book and end with the tassel. The red heart is lovely with the ziz-zag chain.
Jon, the cord is Victorian sets, 5 first halves of the ds 5 second halves. I gave this bookmark as a thank you gift to the mom of my son's friend and she loves it!
