Jon's New Book Final Part #4

My final opportunity to test for Jon's 2nd snowflake book was #17 Firus.




I was sad to see that this particular "tatting with a purpose" had come to an end. I enjoyed every minute of it and although I have thanked Jon many times for the chance to do this, I would like take this opportunity to do it publicly as well.

Jon, it has always been a pleasure to tat your patterns, so to be a small part of your new book has been a tatting honor for me. Thank you!


Jon now has her book, Elegant Tatting Gems available for purchase. You can find the information here.


Tat On! And if you haven't already please plan to get Jon's book, the patterns really are ***Elegant Tatting Gems** (smile).

I need to remind you this was a test tat, Jon may have tweaked it some before it ended up in her book.


Super fun!

Jon's New Book Part 2

When I test tatted for Jon, I felt like I was tatting with a purpose.




#11 Lazuarid



I was anxious to get the next one one to test, but while I waited I retatted Lazuarid in the reverse colors.







That picture isn't as clear because it was taken with my cellphone at work, rather than scanned like the original one, and the lower point wasn't flat.



Please remember these are test tats, Jon may have tweaked them some before they ended up in her book.



I am writing this on 7/10 to post on 7/12, as of today Jon doesn't have her new book available to purchase, but she told me I could start talking about the snowflakes so I know she plans to release it soon. You will be able to order it from her website.


**** UPDATE Jon's book, Elegant Tatting Gems is now available for purchase on her website. The information can be found here. To launch the book, she is having a giveaway, from 7/12 thru 7/15 you can enter for a chance to receive a copy of her book. Quick go here and check it out.


Tat On!

Jon's New Book

....... is coming soon. I'm so excited!

I was lucky enough to get a peak at it when I test tatted for her earlier this year.

Since my posts are few and far between lately, I am going to post them over a few days rather than just all at once.

Please keep in mind the ones I will show you are from the test tat, Jon may have tweaked them before they ended up in her new book.

I didn't do a very good job of blocking, I was to excited to go on to the next one. Stay tuned for that.


As of today, Jon's book isn't available, but she said I could start talking about the snowflakes, so I know it will be available soon. You will be able to find it on her website.


Tat On!
