Within the past year I decided that I'd like to learn tatting. About six months ago I bought a tatting shuttle. I would rather learn shuttle tatting than needle tatting, as I feel the needle tatting is too much like crochet. I have seen loads of sites with instructions on tatting, but they don't do anything for me. I need to see someone actually doing it in person. Where I am, in Jerusalem, there is not exactly an abundance of fine needlework teachers around. I'm hoping that Avital might be reading this and would be able to steer me to someone in the Jerusalem area who could teach me shuttle tatting.
I have a question. I do a lot of lace watching on ebay. I recently came across the following two auctions that made me wonder about something. How can you tell, by looking at photos such as the ones in these auction, if a lace is handmade or machine made? The seller claims that they are handmade, but they look just like pieces of lace that I have that are machine made. At least I'm pretty sure that the ones that I have are machine made, by the price that I've paid for them!
