Hi,
Our step granddaughter is getting married on the 2nd June, I wanted to give her something for her wedding day, the wedding colour is sage but I could not find any thread in the colour sage, so I did the edging in white. I used Lizbeth thread no 20.
The pattern I used is from an old book The Craft of Tatting by Bessie’s M Attenborough, it’s a simple pattern at 39 inches in length to go around the hanky, It did not take too long to tat, and I am pleased how it looks, I plan to use the pattern on more hanky’s in the future.
I gave her the hanky and she is thrilled with it, as they say, something blue something new, something old, at least she has something new and a keep sake from her wedding.
Margaret
A very special wedding gift.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful wedding gift :)
ReplyDeleteMore special because you worked your magic on it Margaret. This is really pretty and a lovely keepsake. When my daughter married I gave her one of my grandmothers lace handkerchiefs they are a treasure. xx
