"LEARN NEEDLE TATTING STEP-BY-STEP"
BY: BARBARA FOSTER - HANDY HANDS TATTING

* Soft Cover Book
* Condition: New
* 28 Pages

Tatted lace can be created with a shuttle or needle. Shuttle tatting may be better known because in Victorian times, when women pursued their needlework on social visits, shuttles enabled them to show off their graceful hands. Gem-encrusted or silver shuttles allowed them to demonstrate their social standing too. But needle tatting, while less glamorous than shuttle tatting, was not unknown in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Compiled into a single convenient volume, this book includes Barbara Foster's book 1 & 2 originally published in 1989. Additional designs and full-color photos enhance this new volume.
Here you will find techniques to help you create beautiful tatted lace. Her abundant tips and notes help make your tatting easy, successful and problem free. Once you have mastered the basics you can tat lovely edgings, doilies and more. Try holiday trims, heirloom baby gifts, romantic wearables, and home or personal accessories for family and friends.

Can you send a pattern via PDF or download?

As much as we would like to offer this, none of our patterns are available via PDF as the designers of our patterns have retained the copyrights for their work. All of our patterns are physical patterns which will be shipped to you via USPS. If you are looking for a PDF pattern, we highly recommend reaching out to the pattern designer directly as they may have a PDF option available.

Fabric Instructions

Our fabrics come directly from the manufacturer and are not pre-washed. If you are new to working with pre-cut fabrics, the manufactures recommend that they not be washed until your whole project is complete. If you want/need to be able to pre-wash the fabric, we would recommend yardage for your project.

Are these fabrics COLORFAST?

No matter what type fabric you get, you cannot assume that anything is colorfast and will not run or bleed. This can be a nightmare when you have spent a lot of money for beautiful fabric, only to have your project or quilt ruined because of bleeding issues. In order to make many dark colors vibrant, manufacturers have to use a lot of dye. The more dye, the greater the propensity the fabric has to bleed. If you have questions about the colorfastness of a fabric, please test it first. You may have to pre-treat the fabric to better "set" the dye. Even then, it may not be enough and you may have to re-think your project and the fabrics you use. We will not be responsible for its colorfastness, nor will we replace your fabrics

FABRIC COLORS:

Please bear in mind that the photo shown may be slightly different from actual item in terms of color due to the lighting during photo shooting and/or your monitor’s display. We have made every effort to display, as accurately as possible, the colors of our items. However, as the actual colors you see will depend on your monitor and we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any color will be accurate. If you have any doubt or questions, please ask prior to purchase to avoid any misunderstanding.

Do you ship outside of the United States?

We no longer offer shipping to countries outside of the United States except to Canada. Due to heavy shipping losses and extended ship times due to labor shortages, we can no longer justify or sustain shipping internationally.
