Primrose Path Completed!


Well, it's complete except for proper blocking. I was so excited to finish this, that I performed a quick steam job and placed it on the scanner. I didn't even take time to place it neatly on the scanner bed. I just couldn't help myself!

I love everything about this doily... the pattern, the thread, the size. Now I'll have to complete the second one where I pay attention to the color changes. I have a few other projects I need to finish first, though.

Pattern: Primrose Path from A Pattern Book of Tatting by Mary Konior
Thread: Lizbeth, size 20, color #117 and #651
Finished size: 8"

    Beautiful and very spring-y! I HAVE to do this one now. This weekend I found a copy of 'A Pattern Book of Tatting' on eBay UK. The book plus shipping was $20.36(£12.98). For what I've seen it going for on our eBay, I just had to snap it up! *waits impatiently for the mailman*

    This is gorgeous.
    I have to try this again. I put aside my first try because of the many ends that I had to hide but you have made me want to look at it again.

    OOOHH, AHHHH, WOOOAH! Very pretty! I love it. I'm tatting one of Mary Kornior's doily and I can see some similarities (in design). Great job, Diane.
