I really love making these and as I was asked for one recently it felt like the time I needed to return to therapy.
I now go to two craft meetings a week. Mainly for the tea and chat but also to work alongside other crafters. On the whole the Tuesday group knits but a few sew and there's a card maker there who loves my little SCMR butterflies.
Well yesterday the badminton group, who meet in the hall next door at the same time, invited us in for a Christmas 'nibble' - or two!!! I got chatting to one of the badminton group and she was very interested in what I was doing - this week I was working on the bracelet below. So, next year she's going to come and learn to tat. We had a quick session this morning and she picked up the 'flipping flip' straightaway. There are two others in the craft group who also showed an interest too. Who knows - maybe they'll become tatters too.

Wonderful bracelet!! :)
What a fabulous way to start the new year....with new tatters!! :)
Oh, to be at those craft sessions to tat alongside you! I'm guessing that your fellow crafters have no idea they are sitting with the Tatting Grand Master and Designer of the Highest Order! Your new student(s) will be astounded if they finally figure out 'who you are'!
If I ever make one of those lovely bracelets, I will feel quite accomplished. And you do them in your sleep!
Not quite true, Kathy. Just woken up and there's no new bracelet in the bed beside me!!!!!
I know I love my bracelet! I will learn to make one when I have more time, but for now I'm happy with my pretty blue one!
