Test Tatting a doily design

This is another Elaine P. Gan design.  It's only the center so far.  It will be a doily when finished(a small doily I think).  I saw the design and saw the "flowers" pop out at me.  She tatted it in a single color, but I just have to make the flowers show!!!  :)  
This is tatted in size 40 Lizbeth Tropical Punch, and size 40 Yarnplayer's HDT Celery.
I have also been working on one of the very long tatted Christmas garlands for my friend
(this one and 1 more to finish).  And I have several crosses that need to be tatted soon hopefully!!  :)
Have an awesome night and I hope it was tatful!!  :)

    This is gorgeous Sue :). Love how well the 2 variegated colours go together to make the flowers stand out. I'm doing mine in 2 solid colours :). Similar but not quite the same as yours :).

    Gorgeous, simply gorgeous !
    So glad you decided to go with the flower trellis/garland look . And amazingly (or deliberately?), the colourway has produced alternating yellow & pink flowers .

    I took one look at this and thought 'Mary Konior'. It's a sort of mix of Convolvulus and Wallflowers in two of her books. LOVE Mary Konior for her simplicity.

    Ooh, that's sweet! Yes, using two colours shows the design up well.

    Oops, muskaan, I wanted to say that I had noticed that the colors had organized themselves alternating also and was wondering while tatting it if it would continue and it did!! :)

    Madtatter80, I missed telling you that I think this new design might be for another book. I haven't heard yet, but I will let you know as soon as I find out. :)

    Very pretty. It reminds me of some of Mary Konior's patterns. The flowers stand out beautifully.

    I love Mary Konoir, but this pattern came out of amother piece that I was tatting free form. If I only have a tenth of Konoir's creativity.
