I'm so sorry to hear about your accident! We were rear-ended summer before last and I'm still dealing with the "leavings".LOL Like you, I'm a chronic back pain patient, so ANYTHING that screws with your back is BAD. I hope you get to feeling much better soon and that you don't have many lasting effects. Be sure and take advantage of the other guy's insurance and go to physical therapy! Take care!

I always love hearing stories about how people first saw or hear of tatting, esp. when it involves a relative.<BR/><BR/>Well, I'm so glad you found me, too, stljoie. Isn't blog-hopping fun? You are welcome back anytime. Yes, please do tat something I would love to see it and let me know when you post it!! As far as your daughter being left-handed, I have taught 2 left handed people to tat. One mirrored what I did with his left hand, the other wished to tat like right handed people do because the left hand controls the tension and she felt that was the most important task as far as handed-ness went. I am confident you can teach her when the time comes. Feel free to browse the tatting links on the right. I especially enjoy eTatters. Lot's of eye candy and friendly tatters. Hope to hear from you again, soon!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13569720420483740487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316800257788156424.post-48437766628641344372008-05-16T10:34:00.000-06:002008-05-16T10:34:00.000-06:00I just found your site via a link to All Things Br...I just found your site via a link to All Things Bright and Beautiful. Actually it was link from someone who commented to her. My Grandmother tatted every moment she wasn't busy doing something else. I decided someone needed to learn this art and so I struggled to get the 'feel' she told me I would learn. I eventually did get the feel of when the thread was correct and I can tat. But don't. Every now and again I pick up a shuttle just to make sure I haven't lost the feel and technique...I haven't...I guess it like learning to swim..once you know how, you always know. So finding you is exciting and it may spur me to actually make something. My mother could not learn from her right handed mother because she was left handed and could not convert it. Now my left handed daughter is showing an interest in learning from me who is of course right handed. So we'll see. I'm adding you to my bloglines and look forward to reading your site.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07647472885003848528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316800257788156424.post-14477510645534230002008-05-16T09:53:00.000-06:002008-05-16T09:53:00.000-06:00Your poor car...and poor you...no,I take that back...Your poor car...and poor you...no,I take that back, you are not poor...you are apparently the possessor of a rare talent..tatting...I loved watching my Great Aunt Florence and Great Aunt Edith tat...<BR/>thanks for stopping in to see me!<BR/>SandiSandi McBridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09033518416111957858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316800257788156424.post-8956562495844957332008-05-16T09:04:00.000-06:002008-05-16T09:04:00.000-06:00Thanks for getting back to me, Laurie from Charmin...Thanks for getting back to me, Laurie from CharmingDesigns.

What a pretty name, too. I think that when learning to tat it can be a little difficult and then it gets easier because it's just a double stitch done over and over. I think people say it's difficult because in the past not a lot of people did it to explain it and written instructions where terrible, now there's a strong online community of tatters that are very supportive and even free videos online and instructions are a bit more universal and graphed out so they can be understood internationally.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13569720420483740487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2316800257788156424.post-33349322757944895242008-05-16T07:00:00.000-06:002008-05-16T07:00:00.000-06:00I am so sorry to hear about your accident, but it ...I am so sorry to hear about your accident, but it COULD be worse...you are still alive, I hope you werent hurt.
