I'm nuts about tatting! And I can prove it!


What's NATA, you ask?
Go here to learn more! Then get your very own nut and itty-bitty shuttle from Tat's All. Yes, the shuttle really works and yes, it fits inside the nut! Too cute! The edging in the photo is "leaf braid" from May Konior's Tatting with Visual Patterns, and the thread is a lovely silk available from Tat's All.

Some tatting patterns of mine:
If you make something from one of these patterns, I'd love to know about it. Drop me a line (or send me a photo!), especially if you run into any mistakes or unclear instructions. Otherwise how will I know to fix it?

Things I've tatted from other people's patterns:
Teri Dusenbury's "heart o' daisies" from her wonderful (and inexpensive, go buy yourself a copy!) book, Tatted Hearts, I added beads and did it in pink size 10 Manuela thread and again in several colors of Finca perle cotton. I made these for the valentine heart exchange in February, 2001. See this site for info on how to join in future exchanges!
I'm in the tatted round robin #31, and the first snowflake round robin, too.
