BOOKMARKS! Motifs 6,7,8,9 and 10/25

I was just testing this cotton thread, new to me. It is Clea, made in Brasil. I like the variegated color it has, though it is a little fluffy.

The two first ones and the two last ones are patterns from Victats. You can find them here:

The middle bookmark is just a clasic round motif with rings and chains , just added a zigzag chain.

Estuve probando un hilo nuevo para mi. Es marca Clea, hecho en Brasil. Tiene lindos colores matizados, aunque me resulto un poco peludito.

Los primeros dos y los ultimos dos marcapaginas son diseños originales de Victats y los patrones los pueden encontrar en los links que puse arriba. En su blog pueden encontrar otros patrones gratis. No dejen de visitar su blog!

El marcador del medio es simplemente un motivo redondo clasico, de anillos y cadenas. al cual le agregue una cadena zigzag.

MOTIF # 3/25 , # 4/25 and # 5/25 playing with wide picot..

As I was preparing my first own pattern to share in the first 2011 georgia online class..I have tatted again , what i called "lochness monster flower"... As you can see , it is a simple round motif with rings and chains.. but in the chain i have included a wide picot, using Dan rusch tecnique, and inside it a floating ring.. The thread here is dmc perle cotton # 8 in pink and lilac. I also added a zigzag chain with a tassel.

Al tiempo que estuve preparando my primer patron para compartirlo en la 1er clase online en ingles de Georgia, volvi a tejer , lo que llame, Flor Monstruo del Lago Ness. Como ven, es un simple motivo redondo de anillos y cadenas, pero en las cadenas inclui un picot ancho, usando la tecnica de Dan rusch para realizar este tipo picots, y dentro del mismo un anillo flotante.

El hilo es dmc algodon perle # 8 en rosa y lila.

and here I kept on playing with the wide picot, with inner picots. This was called The Lochness monster picot.. aren´t you scare??

segui jugando con el picot ancho, pero con picots internos. Esto lo presento Georgia en una de sus clases y lo llamo.. Picot Monstruo Lago Ness..

Nota: pueden ver el paso a paso para hacer el Picot Monstruo Lago Ness en mi blog y tambien la tecnica para realizar el picot ancho , segun Dan Rusch Fisher , aqui.

MOTIF # 21, # 22 and # 23.. ANOTHER SPIDER

Me gusto tanto esta arañita. que ahora le agregue una perlita en su pancita y la muy picara estuvo merodeando sobre el cestito de carandillo!.. Tambien les muestro otro copito de nieve. hecho en hilo dmc blanco # 8, y un caramelo bastoncito hecho en dos colores. El hilo que use en este ultimo tambien es dmc perle # 8 en blanco y rojo.

Solo me faltan 3 motivos mas para alcanzar mi segundo desafio de 25 motivos tejidos!!

I really liked terry nimer´s spider , that i tat another but added a bead in its body and found her going around my little carandillo basket! what a naughty one!

Back to christmas motives, here is another snowflake , tat in dmc # 8 in white and a candy cane in two colours, red and white, both dmc perle cotton #8...

Only 3 more to reach my second 25 motif challenge!!!

MOTIF # 18 # 19 and # 20 ... A SPIDER CALLED VIOLET!!

Just more christmas tatted ornaments. For the one in green I used Ambar macrame cotton thread. similar to a #10 and for square motif in variegated yellow, dmc perle cotton thread #8.

And here is Violet the spider ( my dear argentinian friend called Mabel gave her its name! )!! It is a pattern from Terry Nimer, who kindly shared it at Georgia´s last 2010 online tatting class. It was tatted with a thread called Pilar (from Paraguay), similar to a # 20, in lila colour and added beads to the legs.

The tecnique used here is Floating chains using SSSCH tecnique. It sounds scary! like the spider!!.. but i think that with practice everyone can master it and tat a lot of these cute spidersssssss... Here you can find the floating chain method, clearly showed by Jane Eborall.

MOTIF # 16 and # 17 DECORATIVE THIMBLE..and XMAS WREATH..

Here is an easy design of my own.. a decorative thimble... Many lace bobbin makers, use to collect thimbles from any kind of material and made in different tecniques, such as this, a tatted one...

The thead is dmc perle cotton #8 in white...

and a one more xmas ornament.. a red and green wreath.. do you notice the little "berries"?. they are josephine rings and give a cute detail to them... I have used dmc cotton perle 8 in red and green..

If you want to make one of these.. just take a look at the pattern here.

The last pic is the same wreath but hanging outside , in the grape vine...
