These are beautiful Jane. Amazing what you do with ink & marker. It looks more complex. I love the colours! And i have an old "learn tatting" book. Must give it a look sometime . So pretty!

Damien said...

Ooooh, thanks for sharing these Jane. You've really made this style your own. It's marker and ink on paper? Is it really light paper? It looks as delicate as fine silk!
