It wasn’t intentional, really. I was making a thread sample for a friend to take with her to look for material and ended up with some of the thread left on the shuttle. On a whim, I decided to do another small motif and ended up with points again.
I made the center and thought it was too small so did the next round. It was okay but I still had thread left so I played with different ideas for another round. Several were cut off as I didn’t like them before this one.
If this was blocked with pins instead of just dampened and laid flat the outside round would look more even. As this was just for fun I haven’t done that yet. If ever. I like the look the way it looks just as it is.
I have gone from having no real plans on what to tat next to having several. This is a good thing, as I’ve been a bit in limbo on what I want to work on. One of these days I may take my own advice and make a list of things I want to make so I don’t forget. Then I’d always have an idea for the next project. Right?

Beautiful motif, I like your pattern
I like it the way it is, too! I’m also stuck, so I started a Spinning Wheel glass mat. Somehow that pattern always helps me move on to another project.
A sunflower? I like it. Yes, a list is a good idea. I talk about a to do list, but it’s only in my head which is not at all reliable!
