Rainbow Tea Cloth Center is DONE!
I’m
excited to have finished this version of the first section of the tea cloth. Â It’s just the tiny center part of the complete piece, but for this version I’m stopping here as a sample of that center. Â I’m really happy with the way it came out and how the colors all worked together. Â I did it in these rainbow colors because I wanted to show how the individual rounds were done. Â I pulled out the bottom half of all the small circular motifs of the second round and did them as single piece. Â Then combine the top half of those motifs with the circular motifs of the third round and traveled around the piece using split rings to get from one circular motif to the next. Â It was so nice to only have 4 ends to hide at the end of that rather than the 32 that would have resulted from doing them all separately.
I’ve also finished writing up the pattern for this. Â Actually, I finished it while doing the yellow and green one months and months ago and doing this version was my way of checking the pattern.
Next up to format the pattern and add the pictures. Â It will be exciting to have this small version of the piece written up. Â Still lots to do for the whole tea cloth, but this feels like a nice milestone.

Very pretty! Has this been blocked yet? It’s a very different take than mine, and I’m wondering if your caterpillars will still pull in after blocking. Really amazing work, and quick!
