Shuttle-needle comparison is hard as you say. As I learnd shuttle many years ago I have practiced it more and feel comfortable doing many nice things. Mostly I have done just ring-chain with one or two shuttles. I also learned splitring and dimplerings and now also SCMR(self-closing-mock-ring). I feel you can get a tighter tat with shuttle. Specially with the thinner threads.
BUT, since I learned needle this autumn I am beginning to like it more and more. Some things are much easier with needle, I think, like the split-ring. Other things I have still to learn. I would also say it is faster for me with the needle. Atleast for some patterns. At first I thought it very difficult to match thread and needle but now I think have got the hang of that quite nicely. :)

Only to Peoria, Illinois for a little better than a year and then Milwaukee for less than a year because I didn't like it and I missed my family. I was younger than to. To make things a little more exciting, I did go to Antiqua for a month to visit a married friend that I had gone to high school with. I had my 25th birthday there to.

At 12:20am on January 4, 2009, Barbara G said…: Hi Patrice, Yes, I know exactly what you mean. I had moved a couple of times, but I always came back home. I actually love WI a lot and don't ever want to move again. I love the different seasons good or bad. Nice to know that there is a Wisconsinite here in the world of tatters though!!!!

At 1:57am on December 31, 2008, Barbara G said…: I found your tatting very interesting, especially the bookmark no. 2. I like the way it is finished. I finish some of my bobbin lace bookmarks off that way, but have never seen it carried through like that in tatting. Is that bookmark from a book?
Happy New Year!!!!

The top photo shows size 70/80 tatting threads that I have overdyed. I haven't yet done any using white threads as a base, but I plan to!

I am thinking of opening a Etsy shop.

At 10:28am on August 21, 2008, Nuperella said…: Thank you for asking what I’ve done this summer. I've just delivered a number of tatting to senior citizens who need this to sale for a Christmas event. I will post the photos.
About your work, I just admire it, absolutely stunning.

At 12:23am on August 21, 2008, BarbE- Barbara Engle said…: Hi Pat.....I have done little! VERY busy summer, more so than usual....life kept interrupting me.
Also, what little I have done in hand work is the crocheting of tiny stuffed toys.
I have to do some right hand rehab (don't ask, dull old injury, nearly well ;-). Although I have just tatted a little golden crown for my queen bee.
Tatting, knitting and stitching do not use enough of the weakened muscles, so have set those aside, for a time, and crochet some more. BUT Xmas is coming and I MUST get to the tattng. I plan to tat some beaded jewelry this year. Plus, as always, the little angels .
So for now, take care....
