Up, Up and Away!

For a lady who knows
how to throw down a
CHALLENGE
and
CULTIVATE CREATIVITY
among tatters
with her design class...

This press is on its way
UP
to Sharon
in Canada.

Thank you
for encouraging me
in last spring's design class.
Sorry I didn't finish... yet.
You unleashed my
inner designer
and this is
what she
made.

    How nice! Sharon has done wonders in promoting tatting, and I'm sure she'll love this pretty tatting press. I'm looking forward to the tutorial!

    Thanks Bri!

    Hey Diane!
    I really appreciate all that Sharon has done for tatting also. I got to work on the tutorial on my "lunch hour" today!

    Well, I found my way here via Cindy, via the 25 Motif Challenge. And, I have to know- what is a tatting press????

    Hi LadyDoc! Thank you for coming by!

    The Tatting Press is something I made up last spring. I had gotten tired of my to-go tatting projects getting so tangled up that I couldn't tat when I got a spare moment - only untangle. I wanted something that held my tatting in place and the shuttles apart.

    I used mine on our summer vacation and around town and I really like it. Currently I am making a handful to give away to tatters I have "met" online and I plan to give away a couple in a random drawing soon, as well as, share the tutorial and pattern which I am working on.

    The post which shows a few more detailed picks is here:

    Thanks for asking!
    :) Ann
