Blog EntryIt's almost finishJan 7, '08 2:16 AM
for everyone

Well, it's almost done. I haven't gone to bed yet working on this.  But I managed to make the center without mistake and the 3rd round is almost perfect.  I had to cut the picots that joined the rings on the ends because the motif was cupping.  Why I didn't followed the original digital tatted motif?  Just stubborn Wally!

In case you're wondering what I call "digital tatting", this is it.  It's a motif that I make using Paint Shop Pro.  I take a scan of a motif and using the Kaleidoscope Effect I can transform it into another motif.  It helps me to design new patterns.  Not always I get "tattable" results but they look pretty good and I can make variations from them.



This is the original motif I used to make the digital tatted motif.  You may remember this one.  I did it a few nights ago.



This is the final result.  This is not the only one I made.  I have other 6 variations from the square motif. 

As you can see from this one, there is a ring between the rings that makes the "end".  Why I didn't follow the original designs beats me!  But now I know what I need to do.  Will fill the shuttles again and will finish the last round.  Then write the pattern and publish.

Later I'll try a beaded version because the little yellow dots inside the big blue ring screams "BEADS!"  lol
