AKTATTER: anne that is great news AKTATTER: anne have you ever tatted using sequins? AnneB: No -have'n used buttons either. Cynthia: I try to be nice when someone says it is a "dieing art" It is not we're all alive and tatting!!! Barb from x.x.x.12 joined the chat 7 hours ago AKTATTER: that's true! AnneB: Sequins should make perfect dagons scale though AKTATTER: welcome barb AnneB: Hi Barb! Cynthia: hi Barb and yes I bet sequins qould make interesting dragon scales.... Barb: Hi everyone :) Barb: oh I'll bet they would make good scales. Great idea Cynthia: I got an order in to Roseground for 2 silent tatters and some extra bobbins--I always know I will need extras... Barb: awesome Cynthia AKTATTER: oh my dragon scales, anne this is soemthin gyou must study! Barb: They remind me of little boats LOL AnneB: Will do :-) AKTATTER: officially this is the needle tatting session Nov. 9, 2009 afternoon session are there any questions on needle tattig? Barb: I have just one. Barb: I have been doing split rings AKTATTER: ok that's good Barb: And I go ahead and pull the ring closed. And then I don't make the teardrop thing. Barb: I just go ahead and make the next one. But that gives me a kind of mock picot if I don't get the first ds tight AKTATTER: that is ok it is strictly necessary after split ring Barb: I've been doing the right side..wrong side kind. Barb: I was wondering if I'm doing it right? AKTATTER: absolutely true, the mock picot is often desired a the spot but if it is no Barb: Should I do the teardrop thing where I cross the threads and then pass the needle up? Or is it necessary? AKTATTER: t thenhold the split ring at the middle of the needle Barb: I like the way the rings sit on top of each other when I don't make the 'knot' between them. AKTATTER: and on top of the needle, beneath your thumb AKTATTER: do not let it dangle down below the needle AKTATTER: then warp the first hs extra tight, as much as the needle will allow Barb: I have been trying to make the first ds tight so it won't leave a space. But maybe I"m not making it tight enough. Barb: Ahhhh ok.. It's just a tension thing then? Barb: I was making my little granddaughter a bracelet with just split rings..on on top of the other, but then I noticed the mock picots between the rings. And that wasn't the look I wanted. AKTATTER: there will always be a smidgen of thread between the two rings but tighten as much as possible Barb: Ok thank you. :) AnneB: brb AKTATTER: ok Cynthia: Barb some of us have the same trouble with shuttle tatting and split rings... Barb: I'm still practicing with the shuttle too, but I'm not ready to do anything fancy yet. LOL Just been practicing the ds and picots right now. Cynthia: You'll get it and be porficient in both... Barb: Ahh.. So is it just a tension thing with the shuttle too? AKTATTER: actually there is a name for this disease barb, it is called gapsosis AKTATTER: it is easier to remedy in shuttle tatting though Barb: LOL .. I think I got that disease.. LOL Beadweaver from x.x.x.37 joined the chat 7 hours ago Beadweaver: hi everyone Cynthia: Just a quick Side thing...Doug is officially in the grad school with a date to complete the work and everything...He is officially a PhD candidate! He hopes to have it done by fall 2011 Barb: At first I was pulling all the ds really tight because they all looked so neat. But then when I went to pull them down the thread I had a really hard time getting them over the eye of the needle. AKTATTER: welcome bead Barb: So I loosened up a bit and I think that I loosened up too much.. LOL AnneB: Hi Debbie! AKTATTER: congratulations Cyn! Cynthia: Hi Debbie Barb: Awesome Cynthia! Barb: Hi Debbie :) Beadweaver: ni AKTATTER: any needle tatting questions Debbie? AnneB: Congratulations Cynthia! Cynthia: Thanks , I'll pass the good wishes from everyone...He's been challenging it for almost 7 years getting all the preliminary work done! Beadweaver: I just need to learn joining and stuff and that is later, I guess AKTATTER: on the needle Deb? Beadweaver: yes Cynthia: just ask Deb no reason not to as everyone needs the info... AKTATTER: well the choices for the needle are the same as for shuttle tatting, the up join or the down join basically Beadweaver: I can ds,picot and close, I want to know how to connect more to that first ring AKTATTER: goo then let's look at this page Barb: k MJB from x.x.x.237 joined the chat 6 hours ago Beadweaver: k AKTATTER: http://www.georgiaseitz.com/nt/needletattingbasicspt2.html AKTATTER: go down to photo 5 AKTATTER: welcome mary jane AnneB: hi MJ MJB: Hello everybody Cynthia: Hi Mary Jane... AKTATTER: photo 5 shows a down and dirty way to join with the needle, not recommended on anything really fine Beadweaver: k AKTATTER: just stick the picot over the point of the needle and continue to wrap the ds needed for the ting AKTATTER: ring Rosemarie from x.x.x.20 joined the chat 6 hours ago Rosemarie: Hi All MJB: hello Rosemarie Beadweaver: hi Jane Eb from x.x.x.206 joined the chat 6 hours ago AnneB: Hi Rosemarie Cynthia: Hi Rosemarie and Jane MJB: Hello Jane Eb Jane Eb: Hi everybody! AKTATTER: now look at photo #6 AnneB: Hi Jane! Love your snowflake! MJB: me too., want to do it AKTATTER: this is the classic up join done on the needle Beadweaver: Oh, I thought you would start at the bottom, but you start in a picot AKTATTER: ewlcome Jane great snowsettia Cynthia: Jane love the snowsettia AKTATTER: lay the thread you are wrapping under the picot Barb: k Jane Eb: Hi Georgia. Did you get my message about being ready to draw again? AKTATTER: use the needle point to pick up that thread and pull it UP through the picot krystledawne from x.x.x.188 joined the chat 6 hours ago AKTATTER: now slid that loop over the needle Rosemarie: k Cynthia: Hi Krystle Jane Eb: Thanks, glad you like the snowsettia!! MJB: Hi Krystle Beadweaver: k AnneB: Hi Krystle! AKTATTER: pull down on the wrapping thread until the slack is gone and the picot touches the last ds made prior to the join krystledawne: Hi there/ I'll be in and out today, I'm trying to get some paperwork done for a loan......ish. AKTATTER: yes thanks Jane I will write it up for u AKTATTER: but Deb, look at photo 8 AKTATTER: inbetween the legs of the picot on the new ring there is an extra bit of thread showing AnneB: Buying something big? AKTATTER: that is ok if it is one color work AKTATTER: but AKTATTER: to make the work look better use the down join instead Beadweaver: ok AKTATTER: the down join is made the same way, but you place the wrapping thread on TOP of the picot AKTATTER: and use the needle point to pull the loop DOWN thru the picot and slide the loop over the neede point Barb: k AKTATTER: it eliminates that extra bit of thread from showing AKTATTER: hi rosemarie, krystle Rosemarie: hi AKTATTER: any other needle tatting questions for today? Beadweaver: thanks, You can explain things very well, I will practice tonight. AKTATTER: glad to help AKTATTER: ok 7 minutes open chat before the next class starts MJB: Georgia., I didn't see the patterns for today AKTATTER: I hope it is a new house krystle, that is always such a wonderful moment to get your own home Barb: One quick one here on the join AKTATTER: http://www.georgiaseitz.com/2009/2009index.html AKTATTER: sure barb Barb: If you just do the 'down and dirty' .. will it twist? Barb: I've done the up join and the down join..but not the 'down and dirty'.. just slip it over join Barb: I didn't know that was an option. AKTATTER: yes it likley will because it is at angle to the needle Barb: ahh.. that is what I was thinking too... ty AKTATTER: only time i use it is when making a long chain as for garland for miniature holiday tree and i can slip a bead on the joining picot qnd the picot over the needle point quickly and it doesn't matter it if twists Barb: ahhhh... ok . that makes sense. AKTATTER: has anyone had experience using sequins and tatting? AKTATTER: besides Jane? Cynthia: see I learn something every time I come...even if I didn't know I didn't know it AnneB: Haven't tried it yet Barb: LOL Cynthia krystledawne: I have a bag of flower shaped sequins that have been calling my name. Cynthia: not me...haven't tried sequins but I did try buttons,,,could have been better but not bad for a first try Barb: No I haven't tried sequins yet. But I have some vintage ones that I'd love to do something with. AKTATTER: ohh well you may get inspired today then krystle krystledawne: Yay! AnneB: I think I have some somewhere, bought for some reason... AKTATTER: does everyone have a button on the screen that says invite people?

MJB: no questions., we have lots of work to do AKTATTER: THEN PLEASE EXCUSE THIS COMMERCIAL INTERRUPTION Cynthia: it says they come apart and can be used individually but I'd think the aligator join would work Barb: If it's a sequin you'd think there would be a hole somewhere?
