Ok, I have tatted a few things, but they always end up with something wrong with them. The first picture is a heart and I messed up right under the top point. There was supposed to be 3 rings there. I ended up with 2 when I was done, so I cut the 2 off. I think it still looks good. I just wish I could finish something the way it is supposed to look.
The second pic. is/or could be a pin, you can hang a charm from the bottom. This one actually turned out the way it was supposed to. That is a pattern by Heather too. I just need to practice my tension to get everything even.
The last one is an attempt at Heather's earring pattern, "My Love", as you can see it is missing a ring! Otherwise I think it would have turned out pretty nice. It's good practive though.

Believe it or not, I was just thinking while looking at the heart and before reading your post that I rather liked the group of rings in each hump and leaving the center free! Good job!
I have been tatting for 20 years and I still mess up on patterns. LOL!! Last night I really goofed up on a pattern and I gave up and just cut it up to get all the beads off. I guess I'll try it again and pay more attention this time. LOL
I think the heart is pretty, and I've never seen a red/white thread like that before. What is the thread?
Happy Tatting!
I thought about hanging a charm in the center of the heart.
The thread I got from klmattox on etsy.
Call your first heart a happy accident, because it looks grand!
FYI--I have been tatting 30 years and I still goof up. Sometimes I can fix, sometimes not.
Great job on your other two tats too!
