| The Tatting Press |
I designed the Tatting Press as a way to keep my on-the-go AND in-the-home tatting projects neat, tidy and ready to tat when I was ready to tat. No more tangled threads - I just pick up my tatting and start where I left off!
I am sharing the pattern here for your PERSONAL use. Feel free to email me if there is something in the pattern which is unclear. If you make a press and post about it, please link back to this post... and let me know! I would love to see your press!

Ann,
How did you get a PDF uploaded in Google docs??
I don't know how many times I've tried, but it never lets me!!
Please share your secret!
Thanks,
Thanks for the pattern! When my sewing machine decides to cooperate I'm going to give it a try. Actually, the sewing machine and the iron are in cahoots and are conspiring to damage me when I go near them. It's going to require being sneaky -- maybe that pair Groucho glasses would work...
OH NO! The word verification must be a message from the machines -- it says "killu". Scary.
Thank you so much! IF I have time, I'll make one for my guild exchange on Saturday. You've gone to a LOT of trouble making this available and it looks perfect. Such a nice Xmas gift to us!
YEA! It's done and it's fabulous! You must be feeling pretty good about now. I also like the Google Docs trick -- I've never tried that, but it worked out really well.
Great job, Ann!
Awesome!!!! So terrific!!!! with the photos, I may give this a try.
Dear, sweet Ann... how wonderful you are to share your pattern! I've saved the pattern to my computer, and I've printed it out in case I feel the urge to sew over the Christmas break.
I love my tatting press, and I'm sure we will see many versions once the word gets out!
My mind is completely blown away by this professional presentation! I haven't tried printing it out yet, but it sure looks fabulous.
In the good old days, it would have taken a staff of people at a magazine to do all the drafting, photos, printing, etc. And you did this all by yourself, from thinking up the unique idea to begin with, to the skill you used to make them. Then you have so generously shared the pattern with us!
I'm just as interested in how you accomplished this 'booklet' as I am in the tatting press itself. I have used Google Docs but find it rather limiting as far as doing drawings or inserting images - let alone doing a PDF file?
Thank you so very much, and I certainly wouldn't apologize about not 'blogging'. This clever tatting press is very special gift to all tatters!
That's cool! Thanks for sharing!
Will you make me one? LOL! ;D
This is absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing the pattern!
My sewing mating is currently buried beneath Santa surprises, but as soon as I can get to it, I'll be playing around with fabrics.
Thanks soooooooooooo much for taking the time to make & post the pattern for your presses!! I've been admiring them since the first one you posted a pic of! I'm hoping mine will look 1/2 as good as yours do. LOL!
What a wonderful idea! Now if only we hadn't thrown out all those old cd's when we cleaned the craft room. :) This will be first on my list of projects, after I finish making Christmas gifts.
Wow! Thanks for sharing. You have put put a lot of work in to this and it shows. Hope to get some fabric and try to make one soon.
Thanks again
oh Wow! this is lovely. It will be a wonderful tool to add to my tatting. Thank you so much for sharing and making it available.

Amazing and so creative! I can't wait to make one and try it out. Now I don't have to worry about carrying my tatting in my purse!
Thank you so much for sharing this pattern!!!
Wow! Okay this is going to make traveling with my projects a LOT easier! Thank you for sharing it!
Thank you for sharing your Tatting Press Pattern! I've printed it out and will start on this soon! I could not figure how to print the 2 pattern pages but I bet I can enlarge them.
I will post a photo and link back to you with my finished press!
Oh, boy! I'm such a goof ball! I see the Pattern Pages now! Duh!
Thank you, again, Ann for your generosity. I can't wait to make it!
It will be your Christmas gift to me!!
I just finished making my very own press thanks to your wonderful pattern! All the pictures are on my blog if you care to take a look see :) Sweetmagnoliatree.blogspot.com

Thank you for sharing your wonderful design. I am going to make one soon.
Your Tatting Press is getting some renewed interest! :D
Your tutorials and hints are so helpful, even for a needle tatter like me. I found your link after making a tatting toolkit of my own after being similarly frustrated with twisted strings and such. It's not quite as polished as yours and I hope to use some of the principles you did to clean up my project for future ones.

Thank you for sharing.

I am fairly new to needle tatting and have tinkered with it off and on for a long time. I like your idea for the tatting press for the shuttle tatters, do you think you could help with a case of some kind for the needle tatters?
keep up the great ideas!
I would love to get to the pattern for your "Tatting Press". I've searched, googled and clicked on "Tatting Press" under your tutorials and every thing takes me to your Nifty Needles blog of December 9, 2010 and I can't get to the file for the "Tatting Press" pattern. Has it been removed or am I just too computer dumb?

thanks for this great idea to keep our tatting ready to go on...
clau
Thank you for the press pattern. I have made one and really like how it turned out. Hugs
I can't find the pdf, either. Is it gone?
Hi Jenn,
I believe the link was broken when changes were made to google docs. I believe it is fixed now.
Thanks for letting me know,
Ann
thank you - it is sch a great idea and beautifully made. I am having a problem printing the pattern actual size - am I missing something - if so can anyone help steer me in the right direction
I can't seem to find the pdf file for the tatting press pattern on the toolbar. Did they ever fix the link? I think I can wing it from your excellent blog tutorial if it's permanently gone.
Thanks for blogging this. It's a perfect tote for my tatting and a great Christmas present for my sis!
This would be nice to make but I can't seem to access the pattern.
Hi Dragonswing!
