Yesterday I finished an anklet and a bracelet for a friend's daughter. Now only I have to hide the tails.

The first one was copied from tattips, the second is Anna B design and the pink fabric edge is by Linda Davies.

June was a good month for tatting. I tatted and tatted and tatted and gave away most of the stuff. But unfortunately did not photograph them. There is still a lot more that remains yet to be photographed and shared. I intend doing so shortly. Isn't it a shame that I have not tried my hands at designing? It does occur to me at times to start designing but I see such beautiful tatting all the time online that before I let my imagination run wild and pick up my tatting tools, I'm pulled into crafting one or two designs that catch my eye and there goes my determination to design my own patterns. Thus I get back to sharing what I see online with due credit to the original designers. 

Most of my friends in India wish to see all my works. And what better way to upload the images on my blog. I can give them the link to my blog and they can all see them at one place. So now on wards I shall be just posting pics of the tatting I have done over the years. But let me make it very clear that none of the tatted piece is my design. I have just copied patterns here and there and then tatted them. Some of them are similar in color to the original pieces whereas the rest have been done in thread size and color different from what I saw online. So this is the first installment of the series of pics that I am now going to post.

I had seen Sonja's doily at intatters and was greatly inspired by the split ring pattern. It took me a while to get the hang of the pattern but once I did, it pleased me no ends.

One of my favorite doilies tatting with pearl cotton, size 8, Anchor.

I have been away for very long. Now I guess it is time to be here as much as I can.
