Here is my first original snowflake design tatted in size 80 hand dyed thread from Yarnplayer and DMC Cebelia. The pretty variegated thread is the HDT.
We are on vacation so I have neither my iron or my scanner, so please keep that in mind. When I get home I will do better on the picture. I still have to transpose my notes into a pattern. You might recognize the outer rounds as one from last Christmas. I had tatted them around someone else's design for the middle. Now, it is all mine.
I am very pleased to have been bitten by the design bug and to be tatting my own designs. Thanks to all of you for your encouragement, inspiration and instruction.

Lovely, especially with that colour combination.
What's coming next!!!
I'm sitting here gasping with awe! This is stunning! I knew you were a designer! Congratulations on creating such a beautiful snowflake!
Very pretty, love the colors.

Thank you Pamela, Diane and Madeline. What's coming next is the same snowflake done in size 20 HDT. I am going to use Sherry's (Lady Shuttle Maker's) Easter Egg with other DMC colors to match. Ooh! I'm going to start that tonight I think. I'm having fun!
Hi. I'd appreciate if you'd drop me an email or msg =) I'd like to learn more about St Pat's day!
Hi Laura,
I love your snowflake a whole lot. It is so very pretty and I want a copy of your pattern when you can find time to get it to paper or better yet...in my email box. Very...very...very pretty!!
This one is just wonderfully fantastic. The colors really bring out the beauty of the pattern. I want to make one!
Your design is very beautiful!
Laura, the snowflake is beautiful and the colours are perfect the HDT makes it even look cold.
Wow! This is really pretty!
Thank you Sherry, Marty,Bonnie and Clyde! (I just had to say that.) I am pleased that you like the snowflake and I will get the pattern out. If this keeps up I'll have to join the ranks of book publishers!
Oh, I forgot to give the size of the snowflake. It is a tiny 3" even though it looks much bigger in the photo.
This is a lovely pattern. You are an emerging star!
