1st Post


Tatting is my current Fiber Art. Rug Hooking is my other craft
of choice. I've made rugs for my mom, ex-father-in-law, friends and a couple for my home. Beading is another addiction and I would love to learn to weave someday.

Great-grandmother Daisey Horney (yes, that was her married name) tatted and I have her shuttles, I'm not sure, but I think she also needle tatted and probably crocheted too. My grandmother Gertrude knitted and crocheted and she taught me to crochet. Gertrude was an awesome seamstress too.

This is the edging I am working on now. When it's finished I'll sew it on a round cotton doily blank.
