For Princess Penelope

 My grandddaughter tells me that she likes princesses. A princess needs a tiara, right? I made this up as I went along. The central flower derives of course from Jon's daisy pin, though I had to adapt it because the 'ruby' was bigger than the beads Jon used. The photo makes it look as though the tatting goes all the way round, but I confess that although that was my initial plan, it was going to take far too long, so the back of the tiara is plain material. It is fastened with velcro, which should make it easy to put on and enable it to be converted into a hair band.

  3. Adorable! I'm sure Princess Ella would like a tiara also, but I don't see it happening this Christmas.
