Baiduri



I bought Jon Yusoff's  book 'Elegant Tatting Gems'.  It has 18 snowflake designs, with charts and written instructions, which are very easy to follow.  This is number 4 and is called Baiduri.  I tatted it, using Flora 20 in two colours. 



 I made a mistake at the start and had to cut a picot and stitch in another one.  There is a fluffy stump that I will have to cut away but it might unravel, so this one is for me.  It was so nice to tat, though, I will happily tat another.

Bookmark Swap





I tatted this bookmark from a design by Nancy Tracy.  It is for a Bookmark Swap for the Crafts Forum on Forums America.  I used Flora 20 in Purple and Yellow.
