In the italian version of "Stille nacht" there's a prayer I love:
"give light to minds,
instil peace in hearts"
I wish you that light and peace. Happy 2015.
The cone is in polyester thread, 3 strands, dmc.
There are more than 600 tiny miyuki beads.
Ciao,
Ninetta
The tree, the doily and the figurines are all lovely.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, over 600 beads? You probably spent more time stringing them than doing the tatting. ;-)
:) ty, nice comment! I used about 50 meters of thread, and the tree is about 12 cm high. Started with a ring, then only chains.
DeleteThat is an awesome scene!!! :) You did a fabulous job on the doily and tree!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I tatted the doily during xmas 2012, while the little cone is new!
DeleteThis is beautiful and the doily is very nice where did it come from? It has little hearts in it! Hope your new year is a wonderful one :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, it comes from Italy!! I have drawn only 5 round, there's a pattern in flickr. Wish you a wonderful year too!

ReplyDeleteDear Ninetta, you continue to amaze !
ReplyDeleteHope you continue to amaze us through the new year :-)
Your doily has so many interesting elements and shapes - a good piece to study & create.
Wishing you a very Happy and fulfilling new year with loads of Tativity
Thank you so much, we all need inspirations and fun so I wish you the same!
DeletePeace and light to you too. Wow, such beautiful work, the doily and the cone. I do like the idea of the cone and the beads must make it sparkle under light - magical.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jane, you're so nice!
DeleteWhat a pretty doily, Ninetta!!love it with the little hearts!your x-mas tree is stunning!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a fine 2015!!
Thank you Tally! I learned my lesson (thanks to Sue of the tatting designer class) and now I have a notebook where I saved (pencilled) the stitch count! Wow, I can redo the tree! I'm less confident that I can retat the doily!!! Happy 2015 back!
