One World~One Heart Giveaway

Photo



I am honored and oh, so excited to participate in the One World~One Heart Giveaway hosted by Lisa over at A Whimsical Bohemian is hosting the One World-One Heart event! Thank you, Lisa! I have heard from other bloggers that this is an amazing opportunity to meet other bloggers in the blogging community and share in the joy of blogging and....well....sharing! You see, each blogger participating is having a giveaway on their own blog as well! Hop on over to the One World-One Heart blog and look under the "Gypsy Caravan" list for the participants! There are hundreds!

~*~

BUT WAIT!!!

Before you run off to see what all the fabulous prizes are
don't you want to see what I'm giving away?
Why, what else?




ONE HEART!


...a tatted heart, that is!

Is that all, you say?

***********

Okay, well, what if I toss in a shuttle?

Will that do?

Just in case you want to learn to tat.

If you already know how to tat

something tells me that you probably wouldn't mind another shuttle,

would you? ;)

This one is a plastic "Aero" style bobbin tatting shuttle.

Does that sound too complicated?

Aero is just a brand of shuttle.

This is an Aero-knock-off! LOL!

It's a bobbin shuttle because it has a little bobbin

that pops out of the middle of it and you wind the thread on that.

And just to sweeten the pot a little
I'll toss in a little book about learning how to tat.
Oh, You have no thread, you say?
Okay, well how about I throw in some thread?


How's that?


This is Manuela brand cotton crochet thread size 20.
It's multicolor green.
I learned it's only called variegated when you have
a color changing with white otherwise it's
called "multicolor" even if it's the same color, just different shades of it. That should be enough to get you started
until you can get to a store to get some
thread you really like, LOL!
It even comes on a woodburned thread holder shaped like a daisy!

***
Here are all the goodies togeether!
What a happy family!
To give you an idea of the size
the book is the size of an 8&1/2" X 11"
piece of paper folded in half through the width.
~*~
To be considered a contestant for the giveaway you need to leave a comment on THIS VERY post! You need to have an active blog in which I can leave a comment to notify you of winning. When I let you know of your winning I will then need an email address so that we can communicate to get your snail mail addy! Yippeeee!!!! Hey, if this giveaway "inspires" you to get blogging again or for your first time that is totally okay with me! I will ship worldwide so international friends are welcome, too! I just want to share the gift of tatting with whoever I can!
Happy Blog~hopping through the One World One Heart giveaway blogs!
THE WINNER WILL ANNOUNCED FEB 12th! You have until February 11th at 11:59pm PST to leave a comment! Aren't ya just excited? I am!!!

While you're at it go check out
She has got a tatting opporuntiy you
won't want to miss out on!
******
Jennypilgrim asked the source for this shuttle.
I got it at a lace day event in
L.A., California one year where
various lace vendors came so
I cannot recall exactly who I bought it from.
I believe you might be able to purchase one
from
Handy Hands Tatting.

Ha! The Workbasket Daisy heart is ONE of my FAVS! What do you mean variegated has to have white in it to be called variegated? Who made that rule up? LOL!

itsallrosi said...

Wow, I'm so excited I found your blog. I learned how to do tatting when I was a little girl, from a friend of my aunt Patty who was from Columbia. I was really into needlepoint and crocheting, and then tatting up until about 8th grade when school and boyfriends and stuff like that took over. I had no idea that there were so many tatters out there, and internet groups. I'm bookmarking you!

Linda said...

Wow! What a great give-away....please include me...hugs, Linda

Kate Tracton said...

Hey Tatting Chic! I've seen your comments on other people's blogs, but have never made it over here until now. It's funny - I tatted for YEARS (I made smocked baby dresses for sale and made the lace for them as well). I love to tat, but found that after a while, my fingers just couldn't do it anymore. I still have the shuttles and threads and all...

Thanks so much for stopping by tonight - yes, definitely enter my name for your drawing.

I'll be back later to check out the rest of your blog.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and giving me this opportunity to view yours. I've never met a "tatter" but I collect antique tatting. Oh my goodness, it looks so complicated!!

Needledreams said...

This is so lovely! This is one of my passions. To let the world know about Tatting. I also love the daisy heart pattern. Haven't done it in awhile.

I'm a seasoned tatter so I'll give the chance to someone else to get the prizes. But if my name comes up then I'll share the book and the shuttle with someone who doesn't know to tat. :-)

I guess I'll have to start blogging here again. *sigh* All for the love of tatting! lol

Crochet Novice said...

I taught myself to tat from a book many years ago when I was supposed to be studying for an exam. I aced the exam only because the tatting was so relaxing. Have not tatted in a while though but now feel the urge to start again. Maybe I need some relaxing!

Tracy said...

Such treats! This is a lovely giveaway, TattingChic! Do count me in on the fun. :o) Your tatted heart is sooo pretty...I should love a chance to try learning tatting again. It's been far too many since I first tired it. Going to see about this One World happening...Happy week, my friend ((HUGS))

Oh look at all of the people who came before me here. I will have no chance of winning that amazing little heart and the tatting supplies. My gram tatted and I would love to know how. If only I had a chance. A bribe possibly?

Glad you liked my snow owl pic!

My grandma did tatting, and I wish that I had realized that art when we were together, but I was a little girl. I have a picture of my grandma taking me for a walk, and I am holding a bunch of helium balloons on strings, she bought me all of them!

Perhaps I can learn to tat, and make bouquets of hearts, in her honor.

Tatting is so awesome. I'd love to learn!

Our Hands For Hope said...

I attempted to tat at one time in my life...very young. I had two great Aunts who tatted. Your work is beautiful. I'm afraid I had to give it up when I began to make enough knots in my sewing thread,...and not on purpose!

try tatting is on my "learn" list for 2009, so please enter me and be welcome to my blog aswell!

Carolee said...

Thanks so much for visiting, and for the kind words about my work - and what a delight to find your blog through OWOH!

I have the fondest memories of my paternal grandmother creating beautiful tatted pieces; everything from doilies to tablecloths, and even a bedcover (which I imagine took years to complete!) As a small child, I used to imagine she'd teach me someday....But we moved far away, and she passed too soon.

I feel as though I've already won something just disovering your blog and the other tatting links, but please do count me in anyway! I'd be honored to give it a try, and fell sure that my grandmother would smile down at the effort. :)

Blessings,
~ Carolee
