Nativity Scene

[ankija79]

OK, I know it's not the season - yet... But a friend of mine collect nativity scenes. Does anyone know where to find patterns for tatted versions?

Ineke Kuiperij designs unbelievably gorgeous 3D projects. Her first book is a nativity set.

Thanks! I've seen some of her designs but I didn't know she's done a nativity set. Does anyone know about smaler projekts as well?

Hi Louine,

thanks! it looks nice.

I have this one in my stash, but haven't done it myself. Think it would take a little stitch counting to do this one. http://digilander.libero.it/chiacchi...afamiglia.html#

I just looked up Ineke Kuiperij...holy moly, her work is unreal!

Thanks Michelea, I like the pattern. Yes, Ineke Kuiperij work is amazing. I've ordered most of her books, I look forward to receive them.

Wow, ankija looking for nativity scenes and deacon already finishing an ornament. They will be ready!!! I keep saying I will start earlier but so many other projects started I must finish first. I WILL start earlier this year, these two are giving me a boost.

While not a nativity, I've always liked http://tatmantats.files.wordpress.co...donnachild.pdf Madonna and Child. It always works up so pretty for me and looked so nice on the tree.

Edit: I gave a fleeting thought to trying to make a Joseph in a similar style for a companion ornament.
