...Jon's new snowflake book! Keep your eyes peeled, tatters!
I am honored that I was a test tatter for some of the snowflakes in Jon's new book, and let me tell you... they're wonderful! Those of us who test-tatted have been given the go-ahead to share what we've done, with the note that these are test-tats. Jon may have altered the designs based on our comments and scans.
Sneak peek...
This was the first one I tatted. While I really like it in person, the scan just doesn't do it justice. I think it may be because of the white on white... and the poor job I did of blocking. Scans just seem to pick up every little detail, and I guess I'm not as much of a detail person as I thought. ; )
Trust me... Jon's is much prettier!

Diane, thanks for the heads up. I love the blue "outline" of the snowflake, and I'm very sure it's lots prettier in person. :D
ReplyDeleteWow! I have never seen a tatting design anything like that before! Jon's ideas are always so unique and original. Looking forward to this book!
ReplyDeleteIt's really, really beautiful. I LOVE the two colors and the way the blue truly accentuates the shape.
ReplyDelete...adds to my ever growing wish-list.

I think it's beautiful. I've been wanting to buy one of Jon's books online, but I just wasn't sure if the patterns were going to be ones I could accomplish. Might have to get one to try it . . .
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I'm looking forward to it! :)
ReplyDeleteLove this!!! Especially the color of blue that you used---what is it?
ReplyDeleteYes! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteHey whats the name of the book where would we find it. Also I love your tatted hankies I only have done white ones and now you made me buy some with color.
ReplyDeleteAwesome snowflake!!! I love your color choices! :)
ReplyDeletewonderful , very nice thread with blue I like it!
ReplyDeleteDiane, I really like the white and blue together. That's a "cool" idea.
ReplyDeleteI had so much fun testing for Jon. I felt like I was "tatting with a purpose".
I saw the book + she is hosting a giveaway for one copy!
ReplyDeleteSounds like it doesn't have much complicated tatting - the snowflakes are delicate + quite lovely!
