I finished outer round 1 of the yoyo brooch:
The next step is to figure out what I plan to use in the center before I do any additional outer tatting rounds. Here is button option number 1:
This is a larger antique MOP carved shell 4 hole button. It has a wavy effect and reflects the colors nicely.
This is button option number 2:
This is a smaller antique MOP carved shell 4-hole button. It has some interesting carved accents around the the holes.
The third option would be to tat a very ruffled (picot laden) center with or without bead accents.
I'll put up a poll to the right of the post for you to make your selection.
Well, I am off to take care of a few errands. Later today we are supposed to have some severe weather moving in so I plan to hunker down and tat whilst it rages outside. Have a wonderful day! Until tomorrow~
Happy Tatting!
I like the smaller button; it shows off more of the yoyo fabric.
