I Have Learned to Tat!








For some strange reason I was bound and determined to learn how to tat. I taught myself to do most everything else I have been bound and determined to learn so I went off and bought the book Learn to Tat by Janette Baker and a few shuttles because I was too afraid to use the ones my husband inherited from his grandmother.



Class 3 I made a couple of small butterflies then ventured off to the web to find a few different patterns.



I've finished up the lessons in the book and will be starting on Celtic Tatting by Rozella F Linden.



I'm so excited!



And for fun I crocheted some little baskets to use on crazy quilts. I'm trying to keep my stiff and sometimes numb fingers working.
