My friend Azzurra gave me a box with various beads and asked me to make her a pair of "important" earrings. Fortunately I hade some precious time in South Italy, where my husband made everything for me and I could tat the whole time I liked to. So I had wonderful inspirations and after a lot of trying and retrying I realized this pair of earrings for my friend:
The image is not very clear, because I scanned them, but I think you can see enough to appreciate them.

Lovely, I like the way you incorporate the beads and charms.

VERY pretty. Good to have you back on your blog again too.
Lovely! I really like the way the tatting swirls around the center bead instead of being just flat.
Oh Iris those are absolutely gorgeous! I hope all is going well for you, I'm an admirer of your patterns and I am eagerly awaiting the release of your new books that you have mentioned.
What a marvelous thing to give your friend. Those are absolutely stunning!
Wow!
Lovely earrings, your friend is surely going to love them.
You are an absolute genious, what a design!
What a clever & intricate design! That oval flat bead looks unusual in shape too. Is it really flat or have I just imagined that?
Thank you so much for all your nice comments. I will give you this a bit simplified as free pattern, which I will show you step by step. So it will be also easier to find the fitting beads.
Yes, Gina, the oval bead is flat, which permitted me to put it under the design.
very, very beautiful earrings!!!
Stunning! Exquisite and unique! I would wear these in a heartbeat.
Oh Iris,,,what I can I say that hasn't been said already!!! WoW,,,so breath-taking! Just gorgeous!!!! I'm jealous :)
