International Tatting Day, 2008

To all true lacemakers: Enjoy the day!!!

My goal is to tat one snowman with a tatted cord to send to Bob in the international beginners' round robin which now must be mailed by April 6. (the dates were realigned to allow for slow international snail mail)

May all of you enjoy the day set aside to lift up tatters and let me know what you set as a goal for yourself for today and whether it was accomplished. I will post later as to when my snowman was mailed.

Blessings,

Margaret

Happy International Tatting Day to you!

I am a shuttle tatter and my goal for today is to tat a celtic-style fish, in honor of "Poisson d'Avril." It is the French custom of playing fishy pranks on April 1st. And eating delicious chocolates in the shape of fishes.

Now, if I could only find a celtic tatting pattern of a fish! (I'm not an experienced tatting designer.) If I can't find a pattern I will just play around with my shuttles, trying to work out a fish design.

Enjoy the day!
