Heart's Desire

I'm still tatting hearts. The lower one is Heart's Desire by Susan Fuller, tatted in size 40 thread. I way over filled the pink shuttle, so used the left over thread to tat SweetHeart by Birgit Phelps. I didn't block them because I'll get them properly into shape as I sew them to the food cover.

  2. Lovely ! Every time I come across Heart's Desire, I have the strongest desire to make it -- some day soon perhaps.
    Jane, have you noticed how many of Birgit's patterns are derived or adapted from the basic magic square flow ?!

    1. You could be right. I do know I like her hearts but haven't really analysed why. Perhaps it's the magic. ;-)

  6. Those food covers are beautiful and I bought a used book " the art of tatting" by Katharin L. hoare. and when I look at the covering for a glass of water, I think of you :)

  7. Love your Hearts and especially the Hearts Desire, I wonder if Susan Fuller ever thought this heart would be so popular. I tat it at least once a year, it was one of my first needle tatted gifts.
