#16 of 25

Here is the same candle done in 3 colors.

Just had to have the yellow flame. This is all done in Southmaid Crochet Cotton size 10. As with all the other projects, this is done with the needle. Can you tell that I had to cut half of the bottom off because of a mistake and splice it back together? Hope not.:)

Candle

This is a candle pattern off of www.Be-stitched.com


I worked it up last night when again I had trouble sleeping.


It is done in size 10 Clea Cotton.

I'm doing this one again, but with different colors. I will post it later when I get it done.

Butterfly and Moose

Here is my twist on a couple of patterns.

Instead of just tatting them, I added a wire on the outside round so that I could shape it to look like it is flying. This is Ruth's Celtic Butterfly out of her book. I used crochet cotton with the metalic twist and a varigated for the knots of the wings.












This is my version of Dianna Stevens moose. I used her basic outline, but did it also with wire so I didn't have to stiffen it after. I made this one for my oldest daughter's teacher who is in love with wildlife. Next time, might just use thread and shuttles or needles. Wire can be a pain. Forgot the ears on this poor soul. Maybe he doesn't want them where he's going?

This is the Green Butterfly from Martha Ess' site

Had lots of fun joining the body to the second wing. Just kept joining to the wrong picots.

Picture didn't come through very well though.











Just can't seem to quit making these darling little bookmarks.

I think this makes up to #12 for the 25 motif challenge.

Finally able to upload pictures. Here is the celtic cross I did.

Trying to upload pictures, but beta.blogger will not let me upload them without errors.

I did get the celtic cross done. It worked up really fast and really fun. Used odd colors for me, but I thought it turned out ok. Hope blogger gets things fixed so I can post my pictures.

Celtic Butterfly

Here is a Celtic Knot Butterfly out of

Celtic Tatting Knots & Patterns by Rozella Linden.

I enjoyed doing this butterfly even though those knots didn't alway go the direction I thought they were going. Going to do the Celtic Cross Bookmark next.

This makes #6 in the 25 motif challenge.
