In white thread it’s looking more wintery and less quacky. I
know, that’s not a word. But sometimes tatting turns your brain….well….quacky.
What’s making me squawk? The joins in the body section.
I
wanted lots of picots for fluff. I’ve got that. I wanted to use size 80 for
proper scale. I’ve got that. I wanted to make the center dense. I’ve got that.
I’ve been so effective in working those goals into the pattern that I can’t
tell where to join! Nothing new in tatting, I know. So……
From my sewing experience, I yearn for pinning or some
marking chalk to mark the joins. Think marking darts; ease points;
buttonholes/zippers/fasteners. You get the idea. I understand there are stitch
markers in knitting. Maybe……
Gotta come up with
something or I’ll go completely quacky. Ideas anyone?
