April 1st, in addition to being April Fool's Day, is also
International Tatting Day. Tatting is another one of my hobbies. I have always admired tatting, and several years ago was presented with the opportunity to take lessons. I will admit it was one of the most frustrating things I have ever learned how to do. Once I go the hang of it, I really enjoyed it. I have made lace for sheets, pillowcases, and tea towels. It is very portable and inexpensive, compared to some of my other hobbies. If you ever have the opportunity to take a tatting class I would highly recommend it.

I saw on another blog that is was Tatting day. I love the look of it but have no idea how to do it. Yours looks great.
Oh that is so pretty! Do you needle tat or shuttle tat? A friend is going to teach me needle tatting when we can get together. :-) Have a happy weekend!
Nice to know that you call it tatting. In Sweden we call it ´frivoliteter´ and in Norway they call it ´nuppereller´ I like to make tattings too. And old aunt of my dad learned me making tatting more then twenty year ago (fwentyfour year). I did not know that there was something like the internatiolal tatting day, fun.
