I've finished it! Something as big as this takes a lot of concentration. I did make a mistake earlier on but thankfully I was able to rectify it without having to go back too far. I love the final piece and I hope you will too. Here it is:
What do you think? I've attached it to a sheer organza black ribbon. I'm tempted to tat an extra ring at the top right and left to make the sides more rigid but I'll have to think about that. The great thing about tatting is that it is so light, so even though this motif is quite large, it still weights next to nothing.
I'm trying some new thread out at the moment and if it works I might even do this in that colour. This is another thing to think about.
I'll continue creating things tomorrow. Enjoy the snow if you have it.

I think it is a work of art! What other colors are you thinking of using? Will be interesting to see what you come up with next.

It's wonderful!:)
Thank you very much for your lovely comments. I'm thinking about doing it all in black. I've also got some purple coming at some point so black and purple might work. There are a few other colour combinations I'm thinking about too. You'll have to wait and see ;)
Happy Christmas everyone.
That's very lovely, and the purple-and-black version would be gorgeous.
Lovely work!!
