I'm calling it like that because it is tatted in an
AlenAleaDesign shade called "Wink". I realised after tatting the last heart that I was working from an old version of the pattern, and not the one that is in my shop. But after tatting both, I'm wondering now if I don't prefer the blue version... It's taller whereas this one is wider.
I'm not completely satisfied with this design if I'm honest. I like the heart in the centre... but it's the negative spaces around it that I'm less happy with. Maybe it needs reworking. Or maybe I could make a new one altogether? Yes, that would be nice. Now, to find the time though! :-)
Best wishes,
Frivole
I like them both but maybe the wider one just slightly? Great name!
ReplyDeleteI like them both, but I'm always open to seeing new patterns!
ReplyDeleteBoth hearts are pretty !
ReplyDeleteI love the stylistic heart within. But was struck by a thought - if you don't reverse on either side of the bottom trefoil, the chains will form another 'heart-shaped' heart ! Of course, it may become a bit cramped along the edges & require stitch adjustments :-(
As for negative space, you can get yet another heart 'silhouette' by adding a tiny Josephine Ring/Knot in the center of the 2 top rings ?
Good suggestions Muskaan, I'll try the first... but I'm not sure I "get" the second!
DeleteThey're both pretty. I like the top one just a bit better, it's cute!
ReplyDeleteŚliczne serduszko! :)
ReplyDeleteI like both and I like the middle with a little openness,

Oh good, I'm glad that out of the few comments, the top version gets the most votes since it's the one I had as my final version. :-)
ReplyDeleteBoth look wonderful!!! :) I think color makes a difference in look too!! And I like the negative space to accentuate the heart in the center! :)
ReplyDeleteI prefer the bottom one, just because it is a little bit more heart like. The other one is rounder somehow.
ReplyDeleteBoth hearts are very pretty. I prefer the shape of the blue heart - it's a little taller, not so 'round.' Why not include both versions - perhaps the 'rounder' one could be a 'variation' of the original pattern?
ReplyDeleteBoth are beautiful :).
ReplyDeleteI bought this pattern but haven't tried it yet. Need to get in gear--Valentine's is close--but I've been sick. I love that Wink colorway! May have to try some.
