Edging 96 is essentially the same as the pattern I used for my first big tatting project, in the early 1980s, an edging for a cloth for my tea trolley. It came from a Coats pamphlet. I've used patterns for a collar and a doily from Anna Burda magazine that used the same principle too.
Your yellow edging has stood the test of Time! - I love it and the new version will be striking too.
ReplyDeleteWhen I look at a lot of the new books (Japanese in particular) there seem to be a lot of repeats of old patterns. In fact they seem to crop up time and time again. I'm not buying anymore new books unless I see there's going to be something different in them. People like the Houtz brothers and Martha are my 'go to' designers for books nowadays. Brilliant designs.
ReplyDeleteI think we've made crosses with that same concept too. Your yellow edging looks fantastic! First project? Wow!
ReplyDeleteLooks great!! :)
ReplyDeleteNice to see the old patterns coming back,
ReplyDeleteNice edging
Classic edgings are timeless and these look great. I think I could even Needle Tat this one.
ReplyDeleteThis was one of the reasons why I chose to tat Renulek's Snow Doily. I like this pattern !
ReplyDeleteLovely, evergreen!
