Partially solved the tingling problem, I cannot resist to start a new project. Do you remember? I know that there are at least 3 projects "in fieri", which need my attention to be completed (the squares, the doily under construction and a necklace for a friend); but then I've started a beading project (that should be a xmas present) and GUESS WHAT?
I've started another tatting project, we may call it a breeze... But I'm not going to tell you what it is, I only say that it could rather be another square, but it isn't, and I'm going to make a second shape joined to it.
This new project was the opportunity to refresh two techniques well explained - as usual - by Jane Eborall: one is "Starting Rings, Chains, Split Rings and Self Closing Mock Rings Without Tying Knots", and the other is "Joining last Ring to First Ring". Please, you should visit Jane's tatting blog, I like her a lot!
More on this motif is that I'm using a lot the magic thread trick to hide ends, it seems that I finally understood quite well this method and I use it almost regularly.
I've always been a multitasking kind of tatter, expecially when, almost at the end of a motif, I discover a flaw in the middle and I can't be still focused on the project... For example, the yellow doily in the picture above started to cup, then I decided for the pointed elements, but during the third point, a light turned on and that was how this tree arised:I've started another tatting project, we may call it a breeze... But I'm not going to tell you what it is, I only say that it could rather be another square, but it isn't, and I'm going to make a second shape joined to it.

Non è la prima volta che inizio tanti lavori contemporaneamente, specialmente se mi accorgo di un errore non rimediabile nel bel mezzo di un centrino. Procedo, ma non sono più concentrata sul lavoro che faccio. Per esempio, mentre facevo quel centrino giallo, il lavoro ha cominciato ad accoppare, per rimediare ho pensato di fare le punte. Mentre facevo la terza punta, mi si è accesa una lucetta ed è nato quel piccolo alberello che trovate su flickr.
Ciao,
Ninetta
