Last Round of Corona by Ben Fikkert


I had to change the numbers with this 100 size thread, so it would reach, once that was settled. I got to start.
Hot pink is a quilting thread is only purchased for color and time reasons the lower pink is H H lizbeth, you can see the difference in thread size I hope :)   
This final round is going well I did have to make a couple or corrections with last round of motifs, I connected them wrong and makes a big difference when adding last chain and rings.
I should be done soon I am not half way round!

  4. Yes, this round should go relatively fast, now that you have amended the stitch count to suit the thread size, etc. I'm still in awe of size 70/80 & can't even imagine tatting in size 100 ! My finest will have to remain size 40 - I can't afford to lose my eyes or eyesight, can I ;-P
    Once this is over, you can jump on to newer projects - which doily is it going to be next - eager to see :-)

  5. I do like 40 and it is a lacy size to use and sometimes when I make a ring with out picots I close my eyes sense I have to make 10 ds. and join then do 10 more and I set a lamp and use reading glasses I look up and try to focus on things in the room so I don't loose my eyes but I know what you mean.
