bare back

Dear all tatters,

Can anyone suggest any tatting design for the back of my gown so that the bra strap will not show?   Initially I was thinking of just covering the back with a skin coloured material but it does not look nice.  I was also not able to find similar lace that is used on the front.  Therefore I am thinking of using cream coloured tatted lace (simple pattern) to cover the back discretely.   I intent to wear this gown for a very special occasion in January.

  1. You need a 'double sided' lace, perhaps look at bookmark patterns and extend one as lace?

  2. Hi Jane, thank you very much for your great idea. Will go through my tatting books to see if I could find such patterns :)
