My Dad's tatted flag.

Wow, this is amazing, Love it!

I tried tatting with a shuttle and had a mess,but then bought some tatting needles. Much easier,once you learn basic stitches. I have not ventured into any large projects but have made plenty of butterflies.

Dad does it with a shuttle...I'm sure the shuttle is an antique!

WOW That's great! He is really talented.

Your Dad is in good company among men tatting I found a pattern for an American Flag online...not as nice as his..by veteran tatter Dan Rusch-Fischer.
Also in the latest issue Pieceworks is an article of a man Chester Ross Benz Sr and his tatted bedspreads.. I have enjoyed the tatted pieces!
