From strips...
To blocks...
To actual motifs...
But what's this! There's a ...GASP... mistake.
So, one more try, and here's a motif I can live with. This is Mimi Dillman's tatted coaster in DMC Cebelia 20. It could be better, but honestly, I don't want to look at another cluny for a little while.

Congratulations! It's beautiful. Congrats are always in order when so many lovely clunies are involved. Next you'll be ready for Elisadusud designs. ;)
ReplyDeleteSeen hers? http://elisadusud.canalblog.com
I think she tats clunies the way the rest of us tat rings!

Thanks Katie. I just checked out the Elisadusud page. Incredible! Completely changes what I thought you could do with clunies.
ReplyDeleteYou did it! And you did a great job! It is indeed a bit complicated of a pattern- takes some concentration to follow the working order. I think you might like it even better if you give it a quick press or wet it and block it. My clunies are almost always torquing out of the plane of the work - it's the nature of the beast, related to how the threads leave hte leaf after closing (one up, one down). Shoe lace tie at the end can help, as can blocking/pressing. -Mimi
