International Tatting Day Today!

Tatting Day has been celebrated internationally for over 4 years now. April 1st is the International Tatting Day.
Tatting is the skill of making delicate, elegant tatted lace. It is enjoyed by thousands of people.
On this day, "tatters" around the world have different activities, mostly educational, to celebrate their hobby, and introduce it to others. Often, they celebrate by eating chocolates and making tatted lace.

    I just love Tatting. My Grandmother could do this and I'm so sorry I never learned. What a gorgeous feature :)

    Wow ~ what amazing tatted items! I did tatting for a time, to learn it *and* in doing so nurtured an a healthy respect for those who do it. Beautiful!
