Motif 8: A Bit More Complex
Well I'm still working on the SocksForSoldiers project (see info at www.socksforsoldiers.org), but took some time to finish motif 8 in the 25 Motif Challenge. This motif is #58 in the book Mini Tats.
This is the most complex motif I've done so far and I'm finding that it usually takes three tries before I'm happy with the results. Probably for a more experienced tatter, this pattern would be a piece of cake.
I do better following patterns with diagrams than written instructions - strange for a librarian, I know - so I copied the diagrams and then crossed off with red pencil each ring and chain as I completed it.
Am thinking about adding a tassel of some sort so it could be a bookmarker for a Bible.

I think your motif is very nice! I'm going in search of that book, right away! Thanks for sharing.
This is really nice! I love Patti Duff's Minitats book! I have to see if I can find mine. I don't think it's in print or sold anywhere anymore! :)
