The Word is .. Beautiful
I am going to try and avoid using the word beautiful when commenting on beautiful (ooops ... ) tatting that I see on other blogs. But my vocabulary is so limited in this area, and I kept going back to these same words -
beautiful, pretty, nice, lovely.
Well, I have enough of it! Yes, I do.
I looked up the word 'beautiful' in the thesaurus and I found this.
Some interesting words there ..... hmm
Exquisite would nicely describe fine tatting.
I don't know what kind of tatting would be alluring, ravishing or sexy.
Magnificent would be for tatting that is beyond my own tatting skill.
Irresistible is something that I have to try and tat myself.
Some of the tatting collages that I have seen earn the word picturesque.
And, what do you think of this one, pulchritudinous? I don't even know how to pronounce it. LOL
The charming bookmark was given to me by Felicia when I met up with her in Bandung a few months back.
Ha ha ha ... by now you'd have guessed that I don't have much to do at the moment. I just came back from the post office to mail off the books to the winners of my Celebration giveaways and a couple of book orders for the Tatted Snowflakes Collection.
Ok now, off to snap a few more pictures.

Your bookmark is bonny and beguiling! Fox : )
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your blog, though I'm just a lurker here. Beautiful stuff you make.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
Words can be so much fun to play with, and I think exquisite does describe some of your tatting!
ReplyDeleteThat's a cute post! Love the colors of the bookmark your friend made for you! Very pretty! :)

:) Smiling back to you, Fox
ReplyDeleteJooli, I enjoyed reading your blog too. Selamat menyambut Ramadhan.
Thank you, Diane, TattingChic. Words are fun to play with.
You're the bee's knees Jon!

Your bookmark is charming! Your post was a fun read! Look forward to more pictures.
ReplyDeleteThe bee's knees? :/ What does it mean, Ann?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tattrldy. I hope it brought a few smiles.
It's slang from the 1920's meaning "the best" and certainly applies to you!

That (i don't think so) charming bookmark, simply because the fetching design from Kersti ^_^
ReplyDeleteooh..and, almost forgotten, SELAMAT BERPUASA to you and family...
My ex-husband of nearly half a lifetime ago used to call me his 'pulchritudinous purple panther' when I wore my violet swimsuit. The 'ch' in pulchritude is pronounced as a 'k'.
ReplyDelete... so that is what it means. Thanks Ann.
ReplyDeleteFelicia, it is a charming piece of work and you should be very proud of it. Thank you for the Ramadhan wishes.
Susanne, that is a mouthful, LOL.
