An Earring Obsession

I would like to wish all tatter’s a belated International Tatting Day. I remembered my tatting and tatting friends on that day but could not come online to share my tatted thoughts, because I was traveling. I also did not forget to eat yummy chocolates and plan future projects.

I have not posted on my blog for over a month, but I have been tatting. My latest obsession is earrings. The patterns are my own, with a bit of inspiration from here and there. My designs are very simple and easy. I have used Lizbeth size 20 in variegated and solids and the findings are sterling silver.


These earrings are tatted in the color gold using one shuttle. It has no metallic strand running through it. This design is called Victoria.


The Victoria earrings tatted in Grape Medium with a slight change in the length of the earring.


This design is based on the daisy picot technique and is called the “Daisy" earring as it simulates the flower. The color used is Butterfly Breeze.


A shorter version of the Daisy earrings with no beads. The color is Spring Flower, which is so aptly named.


This is another simple pattern where I have incorporated three techniques of beading, the color used is Gold.


These earrings are another simple design in Silver with black beads.
