Winkerbill: *** gasp! *** picotsnkeys: pearl tatting with beads? Raelara: the books I have seen are more text patterns, some pictures, but no diagrams Cynthia: oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhsounds fun Winkerbill: I'm just getting to where I can do ONE line of pearl tatting and have it look right.... Winkerbill: sounds ...umm..scary lingram21: look for video on youtube for the techniques you want you learn...there are lots of helpful videos there Angela: sounds like it might get very intense, t hough, but fun too picotsnkeys: you know what they say, naive folks dream big RuthP: Lions n tigers n pearl tatting, Oh My lingram21: lol Raelara: I have yet to attempt pearl tatting, but I was thinking that the awareness ribbon paperclip pattern would be cool with beads on it picotsnkeys: lol Winkerbill: maybe a class where we learn how to attach jewelry findings without risk of the tatting coming apart and your necklace/bracelet/whatever falling off. picotsnkeys: my thought too....maybe something for the winter? lingram21: did you get the link for the video using potholder for clunies? AKTATTER: OH MY INDEED! OH YES IT WOULD AND HAVE YOU SEEN THOSE BEADS THAT ARE PINK BUT GOLD INSIDE? GREAT MATCH i THINLK Winkerbill: actually I just learned a much easier way to do pearl tatting than the way i originally learned.

Raelara: wish I could afford one of those conventions Winkerbill: Tat Days is totally awesome!
