If you have no desire to learn tatting you can still have these panties made partialy by yourself. I have in my shop complete kit of 24 flowers and cut to size ribbons with instruction. You can buy it in 3 colors: red, black and white. There is many ways to assemble them, it all depends on your imagination. You can hand saw them together, join with jump rings or tie wit tiny ribbons. Here's an example of jump rings. Enjoy.
