Tatted angels

This week the Online Tatting Class studied a pattern for a small angel designed by Kathy Hodge. This had a center ring and lots of chains and 2 options.  I have made 2, the first (option 1) in size 30 blue Cebella DMC and the next (option 2) in white size 30 Coats crochet cotton. The pattern called for seed beads at the top of the head which I did on both angels. The white one was option 2 and had overlapping chains at the bottom of the skirt, a very interesting feature. On this angel, I chose to add beads to the wings and skirt bottom in addition to what the pattern called for.   I'll use this pattern again. With a little fabric stiffener, these will make lovely tree ornaments.
