Karey Solomon's Tatting Times August 2007 issue has a spiral that is tatted from the outside in. You could ask her if she has back issues or if it is OK for me to scan & send that pattern.

I love the understated colors of the ecru bracelet

The spiral is shown in a HDT that I called "Vibrato". I do plan to get around to dyeing another batch of it someday. Thanks for the show of enthusiasm!

Oh wunderful, I like your bracelets! A watchface inside, good idea, but might be very heavy....

Closure with beads might loosen, try this: one side normel carbiner, other side splitrings, like I did in my "blackrose", see my blog.
Yes sooo many ideas;-))
Happy tatting!

Thank you so much to everyone, for your wonderful, encouraging comments!

I like the watch idea! I will have to see if I can find some suitable watch faces somewhere.

The tiara idea is also worth looking into.

I need to do some more research about spirals, then I'll be able to do more with them and have more to share.

There are a lot of cool

LOVE the bracelets! Both look good and the bright one good enought to eat hehehe! I like Marty's idea about a watch instead of the brass ring - I like the brass ring, but I can see a watch there. Great job! And the spirals look good. Looking forward to seeing how you solve that little problem.

I LOVE your bracelets! I'm glad to see that your n...

I LOVE your bracelets! I'm glad to see that your new books are not going to waste. I'm afraid I'd feel guilty about pushing books on you if they didn't give you inspiration!

Oh Wow! When I saw the thumbnail on my update, I thought it was a tiara but it makes a gorgeous bracelet! And I love the way that spiral is going too. You'll work out something.

What neat bracelet ideas! I can just see the first one with a watch face instead of the brass ring -- there has to be a way to do that!
