TattingChic's Library: Pam Palmer

Welcome to My Tatting Library!

Welcome to My Tatting Library!
With my ever consuming love for all things tatting it seems only fitting that my tatting library would grow on a constant basis. The only way to keep track of these well loved tatting books is to keep an alphabetized index of them.
"Better yet," I thought to myself, "Why don't I share it with the online tatting community and they can add any thoughts or opinions about the book as they see fit."
Each book will have it's own blog post. If you happen to have one of these books feel free to share your own thoughts, comments, or reviews in the comment section of the blog post for that book!

Special Thanks to:
Joanne from 1-2-3 Stitch
for sending me a photo of a book to use!
The businesses who have given me permission to copy photos and link to their shops are in no way giving me any financial compensation for doing this. My compensation is the satisfaction of getting an alphabetized index of my personal tatting library organized and sharing it with the online tatting community! This is only an index of my tatting library, only the cover of the book is shown.

Oh, and one last thing...

Summary: If you are looking for the "Reader's Digest Version" of the history of tatting this is it! Not only is this soft cover booklet a short read at 32 pages, but it is full of fabulous black and white photos from tatting's history; right back to it's "Grandmother" Knotting! There are photos of rare shuttles and tatted pieces. There are even photos of knotting shuttles. Knotting was so beloved by much of aristocracy that many ladies would have their portraits painted with their knotting shuttles in their hands! This is a worthwhile read and a small book that I'm proud to have part of my tatting library. For a long time it was out of print and hard to find so I am glad to see it is available again!

The book shown is part of an "Alphabetized Index of my Personal Tatting Library" and is not for sale by me. I receive no financial compensation from any book sellers for posting or linking to any shops. Feel free to leave your own comments or review about this book in the comments.
