What a wonderful gathering of tatting friends.
We chat, share recent finds, enjoy lunch (bring or buy),
bring recently purchased books & patterns, share hints & tips
take pictures --- and we TAT! Really, we do!
Tatting by Denise:
Gemma Alphecca tatted star
pattern in November 2012 issue of
Denise had a few stars tatted. I think she said
fiber used was Lizbeth Pineapple Parfait.
Denise gifted each of us with
a new to me tool --- called hackle pliers.
They are a nice size + I've used them already!
She also brought stunning shuttles
one with a frog charm - too cute!!!
There is a photo HERE.

Tatting by Sue Anna aka The Scribinator:
tatting up a beaded earring around a
jewelry finding. Spectacular color choice.
It was one of Marilee Rockley's Craftsy Project patterns
Tatted Filigree Earrings.
In addition to a lovely tatted cross pattern,
Sue Anna brought these to share ....
Chocolate Shortbread Cookies ..... Yes, Chocolate Shortbread!!!
She brought plain cookies and fancy ones.
Ah, too yummie!
Sue Anna had a nifty plastic box with trays -
A tackle box for tatters!!! I should have taken a picture ---
What a fun way to cargo tatting gear ; )
She had a woven hand cloth, too - which
I didn't get a photo of!!!! She made on
a small loom.

Do you see the plastic bin next to Marilee's
left arm?
Marilee shared beautiful wool/silk
hand dye fiber - there were several colors
to choose from; however, I couldnt resist
Peace.
Marilee was using her Filigree Earring Pattern
and creating a companion piece.
