This time I tatted Jon's Milky Way snowflake in size 50 hand dyed thread from New Zealand. This was a gift from Clyde several months ago as well as the blue/green colorway I used on another snowflake previously. This thread is very shiny and smooth. It tats easily and "untats" easily! It is 3" in diameter tatted with size 50.
Thanks again to Clyde for the thread and to Jon for her lovely patterns.
Oh My! This snowflakes and all the other ones that you have made, look better and better with each new colour that you use. I should be more adventurous and use more coloured variations.
My snowflakes are only beautiful because you designed them Jon. Thanks! Thank you Snowy. I like these colors too. I am excited about my tree Diane, but not wanting to wish the time away. Thanks Clyde. For the comment and the thread. I might just have to put the tree up now. I can't stand it! Thank you Madeline. You are my best cheerleader. You do need Jon's book TattingChic. I hope you can get it soon. All of the designs are so pretty.
