Here is my original design for the August Tat-It challenge. I am really liking these challenges. We were to start with a 4-ring base. Then design using 3 different techniques. I used split rings, mock picot, and graduated picots. I also changed thread for the outside as I wanted a definite border.
As you can see, I have updated my blog a little. I asked a fellow tatter about making tabs at the top. She gladly shared directions on how to do them. I now have a pattern and need diagrams. The pattern is were I will post my patterns I would like to share with tatland. The need diagrams is were I will post pics and any information about the design. They are their as reminders for me to diagram them and put them into the pattern format for sharing.
I am presently working on an In-Tatters mystery doily tat-along. I also have other testing to do and need to start again on my Proficiency course samples.
So much to do and so little time!

Free Pattern Tab
I think I figured this out. I do not know if it will work so if anyone will test it and has problems, let me know. I have saved my Encased Gem Earring pattern under the free pattern tab above. It is in Google Docs (pdf version). I am hoping it works so I can add more patterns as I go along. If it does not, I am going to have to figure something else out. I am open to suggestions!

Earrings
This is my second attempt at a diagram/pattern. The pattern is in the testing phase. As soon as testing is over, I will figure out a way to post the pattern.
The pattern was designed as part of a challenge. I had it in my mind all through July but finally had a chance to put it on paper, tat it and then diagram. I then tatted the other one just to be sure I had everything written correctly.
The thread is hand dyed by me as an experiment sometime ago.
