I WAS RIGHT!!! That Jane has an interesting eye for color hehe ;) Nice to have something your Gma tatted. Aside from my MIL and me I feel like the only lacemaker in the family. Everyone else crochets or knits with yarn.<br /><br />X X X NOSTatmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03671544914619664856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-86897128809819755482010-10-13T01:33:38.954+01:002010-10-13T01:33:38.954+01:00Lovely doilies and to have something of your grand...Lovely doilies and to have something of your grandmothers is really special!Typstattinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12271407293785706668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-38406843957293609002010-10-13T01:14:28.012+01:002010-10-13T01:14:28.012+01:00Wonderful photos and post!
I love the name &quo...Wonderful photos and post! <br /><br />I love the name "Cakey Nanny"! Wouldn't she be amazed to see the colorful tatting done by Jane! <br /><br />These pieces are representative of two eras of tatting and the 'explosion' of ideas and colors today!<br /><br />Certainly I have a fondness for 'classic' white and ecru tatting, and your Grandmother's doily is beautiful and has to be SO special for you to have.<br />What a marvelous legacy! <br /><br />She could never have imagined that you and your husband would be making and selling wood tatting shuttles that would be prized by tatters around the world, and that those same tatters can share their photos, thoughts, patterns and ideas instantly via the internet! <br /><br />Hope all goes well with moving your father-in-law.Kathy Niklewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471658272689112787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-46891346676305145592010-10-12T23:04:51.053+01:002010-10-12T23:04:51.053+01:00Lovely that you still have these.

She certainly has her own style, doesn't she? it's wonderful to have momentos like these. Unfortunately, I am the crafty one in my family so I seldom get handmade stuff from other family members. It's all from my online tatting friends!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6773419808528632842.post-80329603960096262582010-10-12T18:15:38.307+01:002010-10-12T18:15:38.307+01:00Did I really make that?

To think we only had ecru and white in those days. Nowadays we're SO spoilt. Thanks for taking me down 'memory lane' as dad would've said!!!!Jane Eborallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129528958253092545noreply@blogger.com
