I am so delighted to hear from so many tatters about the newsletters. I welcome all your suggestions.

Have you marked your calendar for April 1st yet? No fooling, April 1st is celebrated as International Tatting Day. Celebrate with tatting, tea and tat chat.

It seems that I was not the only tatter suffering from Spring Fever. I have learned about some sure fire remedies.
