One of the advantages of living in a tourist town is that occasionally you get to meet another tatter and one who has had the patience to track you down!!!! This past year or so I've been very lucky that several have dragged me out of my tatting pit!!!! You know - the place where I sit and play on my own and drive myself (and Nick) mad!!!!!
Last Saturday I met up with Pamela Myers who lives near Cork in Ireland - a most beautiful part of our planet, I believe. She gave me this sweet little pendant made in one of her hand dyed threads which can be found here.
I was very naughty with poor Pamela and her husband (Alan). I persuaded them to meet up again on Sunday morning and took them round the town on my 'alternative' guide to Shakespeare's 'neck of the woods'. Thankfully they'd kindly brought some lovely weather with them!!!!
Oh, a picture of the two of us in the pub!!!!

What fun!
ReplyDeleteMy dream is to visit the UK when I retire and make the tatting rounds. Look out... you and Pamela are on my list!
ReplyDeleteNice to see my pattern going around the world.
ReplyDeleteWith rainbow colors it is fun!
Happy Tatting

Petra - your design and the colours from Pamela are great. As you say - such fun and very flattering too.
ReplyDeleteHow nice she came to see you. And for her the added enjoyment of a local guide :-) I always enjoy meeting other tatters.
ReplyDeleteLovely pendant!! I love her rainbow colorway!!! :)
ReplyDeleteOhhhhh!! Two of my favourite tatters! Together in one pub! What could be finer. So glad you two had a visit.

ReplyDelete2x 10 to the power of 8 braincells. That is because I stopped tatting 25 years ago. Gosh, you could already tat one year before I was born..
