These are some of my mother-in-loves shuttles, and just a few of her many threads. She tried to teach me to do it, but I just couldn't seem to get the right knack of it.
This card she recieved from dear father-in-law for Mother's Day one year, had a pattern on it that looked just like tatting.
She copied the picture almost exactly, and made one out of tatting!
Here are the two side by side.
I wonder how many hours it took her to do it, but I love it!! Truly a work of art!

I used to do a lot of handwork, but no more. However, I never learned to do this. She does an excellent job. Very pretty.
What an incredible artist! How fortunate you have both the card and the tatting to pass down as family heirlooms.

That is incredible... how divine! I have tried to master just simple crocheting and can't do it.
So I have lots of love, for these delicate threaded craft, works of art.

Oh my goodness Debbie that is amazing. I love the tatting. I wish I could find the time to learn that technique.
Happy Pink Saturday! xo Tami
My mother did a little tatting...not too much and, somehow, I didn't end up with a piece of it. Bummer.
This is an excellent job ....she was very good.
So beautiful! I can't believe how they look exactly the same. I never learned to do this, but I sure can appreciate it.
Absolutely beautiful. My grandmother and great Aunt used to do tatting. Such an amazing skill.
Your mother-in-law's tatting in beautiful! My grandmother made lace by tatting. It is almost a lost art these days. Happy Pink Week!
The remade motifs are truly beautiful. I'd like to think that it was done with a lot of passion for the craft of tatting.
Tatting is enjoying a revival in a big way and there are many new tatters joining the community every day.
Hi Debbie! This has to be one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. What a skill! It makes for a wonderful keepsake.
Simply amazing and beautiful! Wow that is definitely an art form.
Enjoy them!
