Wrist Garden |
It's not what I envisioned though. I think the leaves are too much. Even on a more "mature"wrist, it's overwhelming. Sigh.
Here is the tatting:
And then we tried it in her hair!
I have a strict rule about not putting my children on the internet but I wish I could break it. She is breathtakingly lovely.
Elder daughter may convert it to a necklace. Maybe then it wouldn't be so much. Good thing I have talented kids!
I've designed a new leaf and will try again. (I hesitate to say designed, it's more just modified the original.)
I think it's lovely, and since the leaves on all of our bushes overtake the flowers, I don't find the leaves to be too much. However, I am looking forward to your modifications!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very good point! I may leave (pun intended) this one and just make a new one.
DeleteBeautiful! thank you for using my pattern. The leaves can be large or small or medium, it is all in what you want the end result to be. I do agree the leaves on it are a bit big for a bracelet, but as a necklace they may be just the right size.
ReplyDeleteI think this would be beautiful with a prom gown! Kind of like a wrist corsage, but maybe those are old-fashioned now? Really lovely design. That's a lot of tatting in those roses!
ReplyDeleteI love this the way it is and it is beautiful perfect for this time of year, I too made a garland necklace on my blog, I like the wrist one and that you placed it in with the bracelet for strength. I like your leaf pattern and you can say you were inspired by the other pattern too.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty - the flowers and leaves work well together. I can well imagine it being worn as a garland on the head, especially for bridesmaids - your daughter is wearing it more like a head band but still very attractive.
ReplyDeleteIt's absolutely lovely! Not too much leaf at all, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI think it would actually make a wonderful necklace!
ReplyDeleteLovely pattern, works well as a bracelet and I am sure it would look stunning as a necklace.
