I have been working with my newly
found effect of CWJ. During my recent visit to Andaman
Islands, I watched a beautiful sunrise over blue crystal clear water with
white foam over it. The bright rising sun and the waves of the ocean fascinated
me. For the first time I felt like capturing the nature’s beauty into tatting
art.
And surprisingly it looked like a Sunrise over the Ocean
………………..
Tatting of long and short loops
alternately with lp_cwj came out like rays of the bright rising sun.
Sharing below a step by step
pictorial of working of the sunrise motif.
Pic 2- Round 2- Short loops with lp_cwj in each picot
on the first round. RW
Pic 3 - gives clear pic of short loops of alternate
color after completion of the 2nd Round.
Pic 4- Round 3- Last round with both long and short loops as shown.The orange thread is inserted with overlay method to get real effect of the Sun.

The
motif had to be blocked and stiffened to get the perfect shape of the Rising
Sun.
The waves were tatted with chains of alternate (white
and sky blue) colors by switching shuttles.
Before
actually tatting the sunrise with real shades, I did one trial with half closed
ring with cool purple shades, which looked like a rising sun of some other
Galaxy.
lp_cwj
can do wonders. Still lot more to explore.
Kindly
wait to see my new creations with lp_cwj in the next blog post.
I welcome your comments, likes, suggestions here.
Happy Tatting
That’s very effective, art created with tatting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jane.
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing! The sun rays look very nice and also the different colours you used really make it look like very artistic. I can definitely see your tatted picture attached on a greeting card or sewn on clothing. I can't wait to see what you come up with next using this technique.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lavi. Yes we can apply the motif on card or a dress.
