"Fan" tatting video.

Hey!
I'm back today. Yesterday I wrote about the orange things but I'm very-very-very ashamed of my lost words and explanations. To tell the truth, I didn't find the words yet, but I did a photo-clip in details.

Now it's on Youtube :)
Happy tatting.
Your Hope.

New Year Doily.

A tatting adventure. This is the pattern of Linda S Davies. I began to tat it and made a picture every evenind for my good friend.
So, Day1.

Day 2.

Day 3.

 Day 4.

 Day 6. I had to wait, because needed the sunlight.

And I'm a good girl to finish this project! It was begun 2,5 years ago.

 

Happy tatting!

Orange love.

Today I want to write English :) I'm not very sure about it, but it doesn't matter. Hope (oh yes, Hope hopes), you will understand all what you need :) So, today we will see how I do this,

I made some pictures from different points of view. By the way, I really like the comments and associations on the site InTatters. You compare it with ladies who look from behind their fans and even with lionfish. It's so nice!

 




















... and in the sunlight.

 

First of all we make a long picot with beads. Attention to the size (10/0 seed beads)

 ... and the order of beads. You can find the explanations for this long picot earlier in my blog. Than a chain. And here is the result.

Than we continue to work if we want more. Hummm... I tried several times and I can't explain it how to join the chains, I lost all the words, just look at the picture where to do it. To the next "fan" firstly you make a picot with beads, than you start a chain 3-3-3, join to the pre-previous fan + 3 more double stitches, join to the first "bugle bead", than a chain 2-2 , join to the bugle bead and so on and finally you join to the previous "fan".

 Someone asked me about the length of this picot. I had an expirement. Look at the blue point.

And some other ideas.

 Hope it was useful for you and happy tatting! Your Hope (Hope - it's my name in Russian).
P.S. Is it necessary to desribe in details how to do a "fan"?
