Description: Tatting Hearts by Teri Dusenbury Tatting creates elegant creations with only a shuttle and thread. Make these lovely creations Valentines, or decorate clothing or a pillow with them. You can even make of Mobile out of them. Tatting as we know it evolved from knotting technique dating back thousands of years. The Pilgrims brought the craft to American. This guide to tatting by a veteran needlecrafter provides explicit, clearly written instructions and over 100 illustrations (drawings) for making TWELVE different tatted hearts. To create these lovely patterns, the author has developed two new techniques - "directional tatting," a short-cut tactic involving reverse stitches, and "stacking" a method that give tatting a three-dimensional look. Also incorporated in the patterns is a variation on the split ring technique perfected in the 1920's by the noted designer Anne Orr. Many of the designs are simple enough for a beginner, while others will catch the interest of even the most experienced of tatters. Perfect as tabletop accents or as framed works of art, each of these completed, lovely heart-shaped designs is shown in a separate photograph. And as an extra bonus there's a photo of a mobile utilizing all the patterns. Softbound, with very minor wear to cover, otherwise in very good to nearly new condition. Original Dover (1994) compilation of patterns originally appearing in various newsletter self-published by the author. 110 black-and-white illustrations. 32 pages, 8 1/4" x 1".
