Mystery Solved: Doretha's Teardrop Edging

I'm delighted to report that the previous post brought about the result I had hoped...  I just received a message from Georgia Seitz and it is her own design.  Here is what she said (which can also be seen in the previous post's comments):  "The pattern is found on page 53 of "Tatting on the Edge...and Beyond"which is Book 4 of my Ribbonwinners series. The book is still in print."

The comment was timely as I was just about to post a picture of the completed design.  I will be attaching it to fabric in the centre but don't have anything appropriate at the moment so am just showing you the edging as is.  

Although the picture showed 12 repeats to make a circle, I had to make 17 on mine to make it join without tension.  I used DMC Babylo in size 10 and the doily is 8.5in across.


Thank you Georgia for a beautiful design.

I particularly like being able to tat a nice wide edging like that in one pass!

Best wishes,
