The laptop is not talking to the scanner right now, so this was done through the digital camera. There is more, but I haven't taken pictures of them yet. Bummer.
Have a Happy Halloween!

| Filet Crochet rose wreath - 5X6 cotton |

I know, off-topic. But I've been trying to keep my hands in with the needlearts part of my activities. This was my first filet crochet in a very long time, and I hadn't ever done much. It was sort of a warm-up to try something more adventurous.
That lead to this:

| Filet crochet, cotton size #20, about 15X12 |
This one took a while. As you can see at the bottom point, I started it according to the directions, but it DOESN'T work. So I modified the vertical stitch and continued. The changed stitch worked! This is supposed to be part of a table cover, there are more identical sections. Will do the others? Hmmm.
Un bel hommage à Dame Automne et Halloween que cette dernière peinture...
ReplyDeleteQuel magnifique travail que celui que vous venez de réaliser au crochet ! Bravo !
gros bisous à vous
Merci beaucoup pour votre bon mot!
DeleteHello Dianne:) So nice to see you're posting again! Love your painting. You still know how to do it:) Also love your neadlework. The daffodils are beautiful. I would love to see the other sections. How much time is involved in one section? Keep up the good work! Have a nice (almost) weekend:)
ReplyDeleteHi Renate! Thanks for stopping by and your compliments. The one panel of daffodils took a almost 2 weeks. It was mostly working in the evenings. I used size #80 thread made for tatting, sometimes called "frivolite'" Very thin thread, very tiny crochet hook.
DeleteI'm still painting, I'm just having technical difficulties posting them to the blog. Thanks again for coming!
