Diane's TIAS

I have been doing Diane's TIAS and have to admit that I had no idea what it was going to be...even at the end of Day 8. Until I saw that someone had guessed that it was a Tulip and then it was obvious!! I couldn't see past the end of my nose had been concentrating on this thing for sooh long!

Asked hubby if he knew what it was and he said instantly...a tulip of course!!

My tulip was very drab in a dark burgundy so I tatted it again in something more vibrant...a new ball of Floretta that I have just got...the colours are really rich.
The colours worked out so well that only one little shoelace trick was needed near the end to make it nearly symetrical.
Just altered the stem a little teeny bit! hope Diane doesn't mind.





It was just crying out to be a bunch of tulips so with computer jiggery pokery here is my bunch.



Thanks Diane that was fun, so who is up next!!

  4. The tulips are lovely. And, I went back trying to catch up on your blog and all of the geckos are so cute. I've got to get back to them when I get through this snowflake phase. I have some of Yarnplayer's lovely Fern thread and I need to use it!
