This is a FABULOUS cross, tatted beautifully in wonderful colos.
Jane has generously shared so MANY patterns, and I somehow missed seeing this one! I have now looked it up and it's called "Sally's Cross" (requesed by her sister - whose husband makes the Pop-A-Bobbin shuttles - as a Celtic cross that would be easy to tat.) The beautiful drawings Jane does (works of art in themselves) do make it seem 'easy' to follow, but it still looks like a lot of work. You did a WONDERFUL job, and I LOVE the colors you chose.
Congratulations on completing the 2nd Round of the 25-Motif Challenge!
I learned to needle tat in November 2003 and tatted on my own until I met up with the Oklahoma Shuttle Bugs in Kingfisher, OK in July 2004. Gina Butler taught me to shuttle tat and I haven't been able to stop since. Once I joined the Lace Guild of Oklahoma I started learning bobbin lace and Romanian Point Lace. With the help of a couple of beading magazine subscriptions I am teaching myself various beading stitches.
I have yet to try the motif challenge. Well done, you, Brigitte for completing it twice!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so beautiful! Perfect color combination too! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Great use of color. And congratulations on completing the challenge twice!
