Tatting Collage

Not conventional or usual book. Excel·lent for tatting beginners. Truly creative. A good buy.

This is a terrific book with plenty of projects and designs. This is taking starting in new directions. Each separate pattern is covered individually and is clearly explained and illustrated. The patterns are then combined to make beautiful pictures. Not a book for beginners as there is an assumption of knowledge of the basics of tatting.

If you are just learning to Tat then this is not the book for you. However, if you have got the hang of it then it gives great ideas to use this craft for things other than the more traditional items like collars that lets be frank no one really wants these days. if you like concise instructions then is probably not for you either, as some of the components for the projects need a little careful interpretation to get the desired result. So I feel it is more of a resource book to use tatting to make distinctive one off art items as you can use the designs to make mixed media works. Overall though I am very pleased with this little book and it's excellant value for the price, four stars only because the project instructions are not clear to follow.

I am just learning to Needle Tat.. This is a stunning book with lots of excellent info.. diagrams. pics & idea's.. So glad that I bought this.. Cant wait to get to grips with the needle Tatting.. even the shuttle tatting book patterns can be adapted to be used with the needle tatting.. once I've learnt the basics... Highly recommend to all you like minded Tatters xxxx

If you want a change from the normal doilies and constantly working in rounds, this book provides plenty of ideas for projects you can build using small, quick to make elements which come together to make lovely collages.

Bought this book as a present for a relative who'd had it on 'permanent' loan from the Library!A well laid out book, with excellent instructions and good photo's although some may find them a little small. Not a book for beginners though.

You will be spoiled for choice as to what to make first. I was not disappointed buying this book without first knowing what was on the inside. I could see from the cover there were tatting items I wanted to make, but when I received my book I was amazed at what lcould be achieved.

Great book full of wonderful and imaginative ideas.

A ton of information packed into a beautifully written book. Clearly written instructions with photos, along with tips and tricks I would have never considered. A gem of a tatting book!

Love this bookCan not put it down

Sehr hübsche Motive aus der Natur sind in diesem Büchlein dargestellt und in ausführlichen Anleitungen beschrieben. Mit ganz dünnem Garn eignen sich solche Collagen für einzigartige Karten-Gestaltung zu vielen Gelegenheiten oder auch für tolle Wandbilder.

小さなモチーフを並べて絵を描いていくような作品集で面白いです。実際作って色々組み合わせるのは楽しそうだけど、使い道や保管場所がなさそうなので、今は眺めて楽しんでいます。

a day late. I thought it was because of the winter storms, but since it shipped from 70 miles away in columbia sc, there was no winter storm. it laid a day in concord nc and did not move for over 24 hours. My 2 day prime took 3 days.The book itself is beautiful. I like the spiral binding because i can lay the book open while working a pattern. And Lindsay has wonderful patterns.
