I have started this pattern and find that the pictures are not helpful because it gives you nothing to refer to. <br /><br />The authors way of writing patterns is probably the worst i have ever seen. She is just confusing and seems to leave out vital instructions.<br /><br />Your picture of the centre section is great - I shall use it to get my piece right. perhaps you should complete it re-writing the instructions as you go. It would assist the rest of of us to make it too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-74180666876877483422012-07-04T05:21:24.108-05:002012-07-04T05:21:24.108-05:00On InTatters somebody just asked about that patter...On InTatters somebody just asked about that pattern...

All of them were given away as gifts. I think number 31 was the first one that I tatted. The needle case doll on page 64 was fun and each can be decorated differently making a nice gift for friends who craft, but don't tat. I think Mom still has the one I made for her.Eliz Davis aka Tatknothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13560518278370416698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-7827689472417526102012-03-20T18:01:54.969-05:002012-03-20T18:01:54.969-05:00This is one of the first tatting books I bought be...This is one of the first tatting books I bought because of the beautiful pictures. I've tatted four or five patterns from from it and found most of them to be confusing or even to have actual mistakes in them. I thought at the time it was because I was new to tatting, but if everyone else is having difficulties, then maybe it wasn't me. The pics are fun to look through though.Heather of Tatted Treasureshttp://www.tattedtreasures.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8857704024517273961.post-50964064573598498532012-03-20T16:12:13.728-05:002012-03-20T16:12:13.728-05:00Your oval doily looks very nicely done.

It was confusing then and still confusing now, eleven years later. I doubt I'll ever try to tat anything from it again.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02453558059674638805noreply@blogger.com
