Blue Heart - 2012 UIU Project

On Wednesday my friend, Rose retired.  I wanted to tat her something special to go inside her Congratulations card. 

The pattern is Romantic Heart - with Directions by Beelizabeth.  I recently learned about this pattern via the InTatters website.  Specifically this series of posts.  If you are not a member of InTatters, I encourage you to check it out.  It is an interactive website for tatters of skill levels. 
 
The pattern can be found here.

It was made using HDT thread I already had wrapped onto a yarn daisy.  I can't tell you the thread size or name or who the dyer was because, of course, I didn't have any thread info attached to it.  

The lovely Matilda showing you my HDT version of Birgit's Romantic Heart.

  3. Hi Bonnie,

    I like the color and the pattern! I love hearts. The best bit in this pattern to me is the little curls at the top where the heart points meet. Very nice! I bet the work is beautiful too - in person.

  4. The heart is very pretty! I love the color! I am, however, wondering if you're sure that it's hand-dyed. I think the blue is a touch darker than what I'm about to say, but are you sure it's not LizBeth's Blue Ice? That's what I thought of...

    Now, I have a bone to pick with you! I knew that you were planning to change your blog name, but it actually took me a minute to figure out whose blog I was reading *blushes* AND now I have 'Waltzing Matlida' stuck in my head. Thanks. :-P

    ;-)
