Motif number 3 is a lovely bookmark I found at
and written by Dianna Stevens, 1997
(I originally had the wrong link posted, I am looking for a link to the pattern)
It is a fairly easy pattern, and comes together in just a few hours.
The color is Lizbeth vineyard and complimentary color, I forget what
the color is, size 20.
Motif # 4 is a piece of lace edge I am working on, I have quite a little bit
to do still, I need a couple yards of it.
I have found this on several sites, with several people laying
claim to be the originator of the pattern, so I don't know who to
give credit to. however, I did take a little bit from each
pattern and made the stitch count my own and changed just a little bit
for myself on the part leading to the single scmr on the points.
the color is Lizbeth, spring green, and it is size 20.
As always, happy tatting, Bree :)
Love that lace edge - very pretty and a great colour. Would be perfect on baby socks...

The bookmark is so pretty, I like the color you used too. I looked all around on the page you listed for the pattern, but I could not find it. Could you send me the link, I'd love to tat this pattern? Thank you so much, clawecki at gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThe bottom pattern is one I have seen before, several places, I do think it is in vintage books.
I love them both, Bree! I hope I remember to come back and look when I get my Internet back next week!

Like Carol, I think this is a common vintage pattern, with several minor variations.
ReplyDeleteLove the bold and beautiful bookmark!
Well done on the lovely tatting designs, my grandmother used to do tatting but unfortunately I never learned from her. Great to see the skill alive and well, thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment on my blog
ReplyDeleteboth are beautiful; however, your lace is stunning. Not sure what your pattern is ... it is just beautifully tatted!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for such wonderful comments :)
ReplyDeleteI pinned it on my blouse today and it is beautiful, the perfect color and the perfect size, I am more than halfway done, so hopefully I will be able to show you soon :D
ReplyDeleteWonderful bookmark and nice edging! :)
