Wanted: Doodle Patterns

[Sherongb]

At the last Palmetto's meeting we were working on small items to give away at the State Fair in a couple of months. After the meeting I got to thinking about the many other patterns on the web. So I started looking for them and putting them together so I could more easily find them. Now I'm asking for help from others in finding these patterns, at least those on the web that anyone can find.

What do I mean by a tatted doodle? Something that takes just a few yards of thread, the stuff left over when you finish something else and you want to empty the shuttle, something that can be done (by most tatters) in a half hour or less. And most importantly something to give away to friends, family, and a stranger who sees you tatting and asks about it. Something to give away at demos. Something simple that new tatters can do and feel they have done something. Something that is easy to recognize when you see it, as long as it’s held right side up (top to bottom not right side/wrong side).

I went and put the spreadsheet on the Cloud as a Google Doc. The URL to find it is: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkoEARicS6bVdEUtbEdxSTBBQWp4TVNNenhLYXVrU VE&hl=en_US

I'll be updating the Google doc as additional doodles are noted, in fact I found a couple by Lenore English that are already there.

I have divided my list alphabetically and a number of letters have no doodles listed. And yes it's a long list, but not complete at all. I would love to see at least one doodle for each letter (then tatters could do a small alphabet book for a child and have an example for each letter). If you know of any other doodle patterns please post the link to the pattern here, if you have a design for a doodle (either a letter looking for doodles or one that already has doodles listed) please share them. If a lonely letter makes you feel it needs a doodle and you get a picture in your mind please design one and share it. And share the letter it goes to.

I have not gotten to Jane Eborall's pages, nor Sue Hanson (although I know both have patterns that would fit) as I took the time to find others rather than get lost in their stuff. Feel free to point out specific ones from them to add. It's a long list, with some areas having more doodles than others. Other than the overall alphabetical sorting patterns were added as I found them.

I am posting the list in several different posts, it's just too long for one message. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

After much thought I will be adding the links people post to the list threads so if you see it in both places please thank the person who found it and posted the link for me to add..

Update Sept 4, 2011: I have put the spreadsheet I created on the Cloud, as a Google Doc. The URL for it is: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkoEARicS6bVdEUtbEdxSTBBQWp4TVNNenhLYXVrU VE&hl=en_US

I'll be editing that doc as more doodles are found, in fact I found a couple by Lenore English I have added already, so please do check there as well as this thread. I'll be sharing the link with other tatting groups also.

Remember I am looking for doodles on the web. I know there are others in books but I want ones everyone can find. I can create a 'master list' and put it on Google Docs so anyone who asks for a copy can get a copy, and I can update it as new doodles are found.

I think your idea is great, and it is great that you have started it already. I see my two doodles are there already. I have some made some tiny daisies but I haven't written down the pattern (yet! :happy:) I will keep my eyes open and add to the list.

[jamlover]

What a great collection of little hearts Anne. I've saved them all.

[AnneB]

No problem! I have been doing some tiny heart research aiming for a small heart links collection - a quite small project compared to doodles for every letter of the alphabet!

Good thing you are not doing it in any of the Scandinavian languages though - we have three more letters in our aplhabet LOL

Looking forward to see the alphabet complete! And let us know if you have problems finding some for some letters :thmbup:

[Sherongb]

I'll stick with the english alphabet. It's the one I know.

And how could I forget Ringtrim? He certainly fits.

There are a number of letters without any doodles listed so feel free to play with any you want. Y would have been on the 'none found' list had I not remembered Esther Parris's Yak. I thought I had seen a Playtapus somewhere here on InTatters but can't find it. Maybe someone else will find it for me.

[IdahoCanuck]

What about some of the many Easter Egg patterns for the letter 'E'

[Sherongb]

I am adding these URL's as they are posted to the document I am putting together. At this point I don't see a reason to add links to the posted lists here as they are listed in the posts. Or do you ladies thing I should edit the earlier posts so they are all there? But then I might run out of allowed space in the posts. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Re easter egg patterns: if they use just a few yards of thread and can be made by most people in under 30 minutes post them here.

[LaurieE]

Thank for compiling the list of doodles. I'm sure that took a great deal of time.

I think it would be nice if the new links were added to the posts with the original list so that all the links were in one place and that way people didn't have to search through the many pages. That may not be a problem on this forum but it is on some of the other forums I'm on.

[soyloquesoy]

Edited : Never mind. The pattern I suggested is in a book.

[Judy]

Lisa Trumbull at This 'n Tat has a set of monograms that are practically doodles. Well done on a fantastic research job.

[carolivy]

What about Martha Ess's Itty Bitty Bumblebee?

[Judy]

At www.ds9designs.com you can find free patterns for a little raspberry, sea horse, butterfly, and banana. On the same site, for sale, are a carrot, pea pods, and a Hogwart's sorting hat.

[Wendy F]

This list is fantastic for beginners like me. Small things make me feel like I'm accomplishing lots! Thank you so much for putting this together and I love the bear!

[Judy]

Corettadesigns created 'tatties" which are about the same thing. Fish, flowers, butterflies, etc. Here they are at her ebay site. http://www.etsy.com/shop/corettadeesign

[Sherongb]

Hi Judy and thanks for the eye candy. The purpose of this thread is to post links to patterns that fit the definition of 'doodle' that I gave in the first post. If Coretta puts her patterns on the web somewhere, either here in InTatters, on a blog or a web site, I'll gladly add them. I know she spoke about a pig pattern, and I would love to add that one if/when she posts it on the web.

I'll edit the first post to reflect that I will be editing the posts to include links people have found here.

[Sherongb]

Well, adding them two places is getting me mixed up so I'll update my list then, every so often, I'll update the first few posts.

I'm also going to use a spreadsheet as my list (rather that a word processing document) so I can sort by any column. That way all the butterflies will be together rather than mixed with the bugs and birds.

[soyloquesoy]

Makes sense to me, Sheron!

I have two more that I think have not been mentioned yet:
Flower:

Butterfly:

[louine]

I just want to say that this is a fabulous idea.....I am really looking forward to getting the list.....I thought about the paper clip toppers that is on Georgia's site
http://www.georgiaseitz.com/2009/2009index.html
I don't think I saw them listed but not sure....

[louine]

Lisa's pattern http://www.thisntat.com/motifs/pansy.html
could be used as a pansy or violet.... V might be hard to find.....

and I love mark's apple http://www.tat-man.net/tatterville/tatpatterns/apple.pdf

I know B is quite full already, but this is a cute Ballerina doodle: http://www.craftown.com/Tatted-Ballerina-Doodle.html

[crazytatter]

What a great list. I have bookmarked this for future use. What about the bunny by Lisa trumble?

[crazytatter]

I don't know if any of these has been mentioned. But in case not yet, here are 3 doodle patterns:

http://birgitstatting.blogspot.com/2010/04/doodles.html

[soyloquesoy]

Those are really cute, Birgit!

[soyloquesoy]

Birgit has got another, this is a fly/bug: http://birgitstatting.blogspot.com/2010/06/fly-doodle.html

[coretta]

What about Martha Ess's Itty Bitty Bumblebee?

Where is it online? I'd like to try that one.

[Judy]

I don't know if any of these has been mentioned. But in case not yet, here are 3 doodle patterns:

http://birgitstatting.blogspot.com/2010/04/doodles.html

I think they were listed individually.

[soyloquesoy]

There is something else I do to empty shuttles, not sure it qualifies as "doodle" b/c it is "utilitarian", but here are my stitch markers for knitting (http://creativasuculencia.wordpress.com/2010/11/24/stitch-markers-for-knitting-marcadores-de-puntos-para-tejer/). (it's not a pattern mind you, just a blog post about them, I could write it in pattern form but not soon)

[soyloquesoy]

It seems this bee isn't there yet: Matha Ess's bumble bee: http://www.georgiaseitz.com/classes2001/essbee.html

[jamlover]

Neat idea soyloquesoy. And practice for split rings and hiding that last tail!!

[louine]

Oh, I just remember that several people online helped me design a pattern for a cowboy boot......I will try and draw it and post it as well.

[Sherongb]

I have just edited the three posts with pattern links in them to include patterns from Jane Eborall, Sue Hanson, Rogers ProBoards site and patterns linked to this point. What is in each letter has not been updated in most cases.

There are still lonely letters, without a doodle for them, waiting for someone to design a doodle for them. At this point I, J, N, U, V, X and Z are without doodles. Can you find or design a doodle for one or more of those letters?

[louine]

Be-stitched Ice cream cone....
http://www.be-stitched.com/files/icecream.pdf

[soyloquesoy]

I am sure I saw a "Hugs and kisses" that was just a couple of rings - the X was made with the thread ends. That one could work for X ;-) I am sorry I don't remember where I saw it, though - what you are doing here Sheron is important, to have some sort of systematic approach to the hundreds of patterns available...

[Sherongb]

Soyloquesoy: If you write up those stitch markers I'll add them. And if you find the hugs and kisses post the link and I'll add them also. And systematic or OCD??? The nice thing about putting it into a spread sheet is that it can be sorted on any column or filtered for any specific item so if you are looking for bugs you can find them, if you are looking for Jane Eborall's patterns you can find them

Louine: Thanks for the Ice Cream Cone. And please do write down your cowboy boot and post the link so it can be added.

[louine]

Okay here it is the cowboy boot.....the sketch isn't as neat looking as I would have liked but I needed the practice using the draw program.

[shannon_in_love]

LOUINE!!!!! THAT IS TOO CUTE FOR ME TO HANDLE...that is one genius pattern. thank you soooooo much for sharing that with us!!!! that is one great design...me and my sister both saw it at the same time and it was just great. better than we had expected...much better!

[Sherongb]

Louine: I have added the Cowboy Boot to the list. Thanks for writing it up and sharing it.

[soyloquesoy]

There are two patterns that fit the bill in German in this page:

http://www.utlindes-handarbeiten.de/16.html

Minihertz1: http://www.utlindes-handarbeiten.de/resources/Miniherz-1-$28Occhi$29.jpg (small heart with block tatting)

[louine]

Shannon, thanks, as I said in the pattern there were people on this site that gave me help.....

PattyD was one of the people that really helped....I just adapted her "doodle" to fit what I needed.....there were others as well....you might want to check out the thread to see the help and process from start to finish.....

[QUOTE=soyloquesoy;59918]There are two patterns that fit the bill in German in this page: Following some of these threads has meant visiting sites I'd never seen before! a BoNus

[soyloquesoy]

Look at these wonderful, fun little feet (or footmarks)!

http://www.freewebs.com/tattinghajarea2/feet.html

They are just amazingly cool!

Thank you Heather for the pattern. Sheron, in her site:
http://www.freewebs.com/heathersdesigns2003/PATTERNINDEX.htm
there are several other patterns that fit the bill, I don't have the time to pursue it systematically just now, so sorry I am not giving you the individual links.

[Sherongb]

Soyloquesoy: I do have many of Heathers patterns listed. Seems I missed the footprint (although it would be cute on an announcement of a birth, or a card enclosed with a baby shower gift). And I have also added the German patterns you found. I used links to English translations rather than the original German pages.

[soyloquesoy]

ah, good thing I did not spend a long time looking through Heather's patterns then!

I'll go back to find those translations, I didn't find them.

[Sherongb]

When I want to translate a page I go to the page, copy the URL, paste it into my Google search box. When the search results comes up (and it's the top result on the page usually) at the end of the link is the phrase 'translate this page'. I click on that and get the page in (more or less) English (my language of choice). When I add the link to the list I use the URL for the translated page.

[soyloquesoy]

Hm, that works for webpages, but the patterns are in pdf format and they don't get translated that way. They won't be difficult to follow anyway, I guess. Remember we have a group for Multi-lingual tatting terms, papgena shared these links to German-English tatting glossaries:
http://www.occhi-world.de/definit.htm
http://www.tatting.de/dictionary/d-edict.htm

[soyloquesoy]

Another little rabbit: http://www.occhi-world.de/rabbit.htm

[Sherongb]

I went and put the spreadsheet listing on the cloud as a google doc. URL to find it is: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AkoEARicS6bVdEUtbEdxSTBBQWp4TVNNenhLYXVrU VE&hl=en_US

I'll add the link to the first post and won't be adding more to the posts here. I'll be sharing the link with other tatting groups also.

[louine]

Thank you so much for your time and efforts.....this is a great list.

[soyloquesoy]

Ditto!

I have the idea V could be for Vine, I saw some but couldn't find any pattern.

[AnneB]

Your spread sheet is just amazing, Sherong.
I'm working on a newt for the N section. I have the general idea down, but need some technique developement.

[Sherongb]

I posted the link and info to all the tatting groups I am on (and sent it to Georgia also). If I ever get a chance I might add a list of techniques the doodle uses. They are not all just rings and chains and they would be a good way to practice a technique without doing a bigger project.

You could make colums for each thechnique (rings and chains only, rings only, chains only, split rings, ...) and make x-es at the techniques used. As it is a spread sheet we can then sort by technique if wanted (spread sheets are fun!).

[Sherongb]

Yes, but I didn't note down which patterns used which techniques so I would have to go through them all again to get that info.

And you don't need separate columns for each technique. If you wanted to find all doodles with split rings you could filter on the term 'split rings' then only those would show. I do have to check though if there are several techniques, such as something that uses split rings and floating rings (just an example), in the same box will it catch either or only both.

[LaurieE]

Thank you so much for compiling this list. I know it took a lot of time and effort on your part.

Thanks Louine, I added it to the Google spreadsheet. But I put it under H with the other hats.

[louine]

I keep looking for the "empty letters"----what about zig-zag chain for the Z----- http://www.tat-man.net/tatterville/howtotat/ZigZagChain.html

and for V a violet bouquet http://home.netcom.com/~ntrop/mimi/violets.htm

[jamlover]

What a cute little violet pattern.

[Sherongb]

Louine: I have added the Violet, but since it's a Flower I added it under F with the other flowers. As to the Zig Zag chain I don't think it really is a doodle, it's just a chain, so I didn't add it. But thanks for trying to come up with doodles for the missing letters.

[louine]

Okay, found an N but you might want to call it an S..... and I don't know if it is simple enough to call a doodle......
name tag shuttle http://web.archive.org/web/20030626072901/http://home.pacbell.net/jlowe2/kathy/Pattern/shuttletag.html

[Sherongb]

Since it will take more than 30 minutes to make (and more than an hour if I remember correctly from when I made the 7 letter version) it doesn't fit the criteria.

Please say hello to Netty the newt.

æ ø å for me in Norway :)
Still learning Norwegian so can''t think of anything you could doodle for those letters. But might be a good idea to search in different languages and see if there are any usable patterns to add to the list.

List on google docs is a brilliant idea Sherongb (http://www.intatters.com/member.php?50-Sherongb). I will be sure to add some there when I find any new ones. What a great resource.If anyone has a childs alphabet book they could use that for ideas on what doodles to search for for the mising letters. I have a brilliant one back in NZ that goes
A My name is Alace and my husbands name is Alex, I am an ape and he is a anteater. Then has a page of drawings of the two of them surrounded by objects starting with A, but I can't remember even that first line correctly, its been so long since my kids were little and they dont have littlies yet.

[Raven1962]

Ahh so I can't add to google docs, probably wise as keeps the list neat if you have one persons style of updating in there.

This site has a number f doodles including a Lion, Eggs, a wreath, and the letters themselves.

OOhh I just remembered. Somewhere in my bookcase is a whole book of illustrations where each page is one letter and nearly every item in the illustration starts with that letter!... like of like "where's Waldo" pictures. I'll have to check it out to see what pops out at me.

[Sherongb]

Feel free to add it here but it won't make my doodle list as that list is for items everyone can access on the web. There are several good books with doodles. But I was looking for a list of items on the web. After all I do have to set limits somewhere.

[Judy]

Agreed...

[soyloquesoy]

Anne, love the newt! I have some lizard-loving friend who would enjoy her immensely.

Sheron, not sure if you mind me adding new ones as I come across them... I found this page has a few critters, I don't think they are in your list yet: http://suzann-does-it-all.com/tatting/kwki-kritters

[Sherongb]

Although it's Suzanne's page the patterns are by Brenda Bonilla and they are cute. I have listed the individual patterns on the master list on Google Docs.

And yes, I hope everyone does add links here as they find patterns. I can't find them all. And there are still a couple of letters without doodles for them.

[soyloquesoy]

Just remembered this cute spider: http://www.georgiaseitz.com/2010/terrynimmerspiderfc.pdf, I think it's not there yet.

Can't believe I haven't stumbled across this before! What a brilliant list. I love using the cloud for this stuff...saving link to evernote now so I can find it again :)

Sherongb, this is quite an undertaking, but what a wonderful thing to do. My left over thread bits may no longer be "for the birds!" (My favorite so far: the lobster!!)

[Sherongb]

Sine Palmetto's gives away about 4,000 doodles each year at the South Carolina State Fair I keep on looking for doodles and like to be able to point people to them. One day I got tired of looking for some of them and decided to put the links into a spreadsheet so I could find them at any time. Then I realized that putting the list on the Cloud meant I had an easy way to share them with others. Please feel free to share the link to the list with any and all tatters around. Glad what helps me also helps others.

[Judy]

Update on links. all the jane eborall patterns, and a few new ones not listed on these pages, can now be found at www.janeeborall.freeservers.com/doodles.htm. Other parts of her site have more patterns.

A second source: www.tattingpatterncentral.com/ has an alphabetic listing also, some of which take you back to Jane's patterns.

Martha Ess's page about Folded rings has some good doodles http://pwp.att.net/p/s/community.dll?ep=87&subpageid=302674&ck= (Will that work as a link? I haven't done links on here before) I used her technique to make a very, very small butterfly http://janemactats.blogspot.com/2013/02/folded-ring-butterfly.html , a doodle if ever there was one. My flower dangle pattern http://www.keepandshare.com/doc/3858415/flower-dangle-and-earrings-60k?da=y was used by Marie Smith to make more than 100 gifts for people at Palmetto Tat Days. I think it qualifies as a doodle!
