Terry McGuffin's "MeadowSong"

Many thanks to Terry McGuffin for sharing this

challenging pattern from her first book, "Tatted

Ornaments" with the online tatting class.

"Meadowsong" offers many possibilities for

personalization of this pattern. Both the blossoms

and the butterflies could be tatted in a rainbow of

colors. The greenery and sleeping seeds offer

earthy color tones to balance the gay pastels

above. Equally effective in solid white or color,

this pattern is not only a lovely decoration for a

Christmas ornament, but as an edging it can be

adapted to many uses.
