Marilee’s Bell,
Re-topped
Marilee Rockley is a tatter extraordinaire, a member of
InTatters and she writes a great blog at http://yarnplayertats.blogspot.com
as well as selling her jewelry, patterns and hand dyed threads in her Etsy shop
http://www.etsy.com/shop/yarnplayer?ref=shop_sugg.
She has a great free pattern called Joyful Bell on her blog, which I’ve made
several times. I thought that open space in the center looked like a great
place to hang a teardrop so I’ve adapted her work to make the top of the bell a
little more ornate. I use it a lot for earrings, and typically tat beads onto
every picot in sight! See what you think.
