Tatting Stitch Club - July 10th 2021

 Hi All

I'm running a tatting stitch club on 10th July 2021 at Heighington.  I will have tatting shuttles with me if you haven't got one and you can purchase for £1.50 if you want.  Requirements list:

  • I recommend a thread that will 'slip' relatively easily, so crochet cotton, or pearl.  You can use wool, but it's not as forgiving.
  • A tapestry needle in case of knots!  It happens to the best of us!
  • Scissors
  • If we get time and you want to try it, beads that will fit on the thread you are tatting with
  • Packed lunch
We'll start by learning the basic stitch and create a motif or two, using double stitch, picots etc.

I look forward to seeing you there!!

Further Details for the Silk Painting Stitch club by Kathy Paton

Silk paints and a practice piece of silk will be free (covered by expenses). Brushes, dishes, pipettes and pens if required, will be available.


You might like to create a panel for a bag. As the silk will be backed onto freezer paper you can stitch into it or embellish with beads.

There’s plenty of inspiration on Pinterest!

I will have some additional extras available- with Gutta outlines already printed. These are good to get to started - very effective and satisfying.

Gutta outline pictures, various designs, £1:05 each

Bookmark 80p each

Card aperture mount and envelope 70p each

I have a couple of silk phone cases at £4 each

I will have A4 pieces of silk for sale - to be priced up.
