I took a look at your blog posts and will continue to think about the T.A.T. program - there's always time to learn! Thanks for the encouragement!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01771434741287491197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-9722387149907793952012-10-26T07:53:52.151-05:002012-10-26T07:53:52.151-05:00Allison,

Though you can take as much time as you want, i gave myself a timeline for every single piece, followed it and met it. And I had wonderful binders of material to keep. So, for someone like me it was the PER FECT learning strategy. i completed the whole thing in a year, which met my own goal.<br /><br />If you are obsessive, organized, stubborn and a stickler for detail., this course is for you!<br /><br />Check tat-ology - there is a 'search this blog' tool on the side and ask for T.A.T. as I have written some on the blog I think.<br /><br />Fox : )Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12889386206601730189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-24871160244641843302012-10-26T07:33:14.652-05:002012-10-26T07:33:14.652-05:00Thanks Margaret!

I thought that would give me a structure to the trying out idea. How about that?Jane McLellanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17221433363521511688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-14268957275474219682012-10-26T03:41:28.556-05:002012-10-26T03:41:28.556-05:00I started Marilee's course on shuttle tatting ...I started Marilee's course on shuttle tatting to improve my skills with the new ideas which I felt I am failing on, I lot of it was for beginners so after 41 years I don't think I am a true beginner. But she has a lot of things on there I did not know and it's been a good course to bring me up to the new things.<br />I have not tried the runner but I have done the bookmark several times now and it's one of my favourite designs perhaps one day I will do the runner but at the moment I have a lot on coming up to Christmas, snowflakes, angels and my own little pattern which is being test tatted. <br />I think as the years roll on there will always be new ideas and new things to learn , we never stop learning something, I am sure in a hundred years time somewhere in the world there will be tatters saying the same things.<br />Keep up the good work it's looking good so far.<br />MargaretMargarets designer cardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649752567816134409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-88447927245595530502012-10-25T19:07:47.713-05:002012-10-25T19:07:47.713-05:00I'm right with you Ladytats - I feel that if I...I'm right with you Ladytats - I feel that if I purchased the lessons and binder (and they're not cheap), I wouldn't get it done and would have to pick it up and put it down a lot. Thanks for the feedback about TAT! It's great to hear your thoughts on this!<br /><br />Hi there Michelle! I'm really liking the little Quatrain motif - I bet it's a beautiful runner! I found that there are little chains of 3 stitches all around the first round, so to make sure there is one on either side of the last ring, I added the split chain before I started the split ring to climb out...I'll have to check the pattern again to make sure I'm reading it right; it's been one of those days! hehe!<br /><br />God'sKid - time just flies, especially in 'Tat-land!' I'm always seeing new patterns and threads that I want to try and I'm finding that I have a very short attention span; I'm always eager to try something new, but I don't necessarily finish them all. Blogging about bigger projects helps me stay motivated. I'm looking forwards to checking some goals off my list!

Yours is looking good!! :)<br />I too am wanting to improve my tatting and learn new techniques. I had this all planned for this year with several projects, yet I have people requesting things so it keeps me busy and I haven't gotten to much of anything I had planned. I sure hope this next year allows me more time to devote to this. I sure hope you achieve all yours goals!! :)God's Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14235608410243857253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-1840421892331069092012-10-25T17:50:40.600-05:002012-10-25T17:50:40.600-05:00Happy Bluebird has done TAT- great idea but very t...Happy Bluebird has done TAT- great idea but very time-consuming. I've looked at the binder and want to do it- someday.<br /><br />I'm making a runner of the Quatrain and have about 40 motifs joined, but I can't figure out where the split chain goes. I just use the split ring Frivole designed and that gets to the outer round. hmm?Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15274345764787048662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-75212376789150283512012-10-25T17:33:39.465-05:002012-10-25T17:33:39.465-05:00I have had the beginning book for several years.

I have started it more then once. <br />I just never have the time it seems, so by the time I get back to it, I feel I need to restart the lessons. <br /><br />I have decided that until I retire, I do not have the time to devote to the lessons. I would like to, but too many other things to do, and I would get no tatting done as you are not allowed to post your lessons online, and that would be all the tatting I would have time for.Ladytatshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13333655818263465112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686992030343180610.post-1447633369293000002012-10-25T17:25:32.298-05:002012-10-25T17:25:32.298-05:00Thats exactly what I was thinking!

I like your idea of "on your own" improvement of tatting. I may just join you with this :) I sometimes just get sloppy with my skills and I also get a little lazy with new ones. What a great idea to not cut corners and do my best!!! Hmmm..now to come up with some challenges for myself!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
