My first blog

Hi

I have decided to set up a blog about my tatting.  I have a very busy life with a lot of commitments and also a lot of other hobbies so maybe I won't post very often.  I have been motivated to start the blog to share my tatting of Jon's tat-a-long.

This is the first round worked in Lizbeth 40 Grape Swirl.
When I had cut and tied the ends I was not sure that I really wanted to do it that way!!
So I have decided to do two versions: one in separate rounds and one climbing out of rounds and with frontside backside tatting.  I find this very hard because I learned to tat as a child and had been tatting for 50 years before I discovered frontside backside tatting on the internet.  My brain knows what I have to do but my fingers rush ahead and do things the way they have always done them
