Finished Heart Motif

I finished the heart from the advanced practice patterns and incorporated posted rings and nested chains for the first time. (Thank you Sparrow for that video of tips from a professional lace maker on YouTube!)
I forgot to post one of the rings but overall I think it turned out better than anything I have made so far, and it's not very noticeable unless you know what to look for 😂 I think after I block it I might sew it onto a t shirt or bag, or maybe on black fabric in an embroidery hoop. I can't decide yet, but I want to do something with it lol.
I also have completely stopped using picot gauges and am getting better at making them on my own yay!
I did some practice for a few different ways to add beads and prepped my shuttles for the Tamerlane choker!
I'm so…




I’ve been a super knitter and crocheter for years. And I have just gotten into Tatting. And I have practiced 30 min to an hour a day for the past 2 weeks. And I'm getting substantially better!! Your videos are so clear and helpful. I purchased a magnifying glass with a light, so that does help for when I mess up. In your pattern of the month club is there a video tutorial? I understand your videos on how to read patterns, it’s just when I am first learning something I really do like watching a video. It helps. When I get to the intermediate level then I enjoy the written patterns more.
