Although I now live in London I'm Yorkshire born & bred :-)) My affinity with thread began at the age of 4, when Mom gave me needle, thread & fabric and started me embroidering. The idea was to keep me quiet but I'm not sure that worked! LOL In the 1960's I took the Goldenhands Partwork and from it taught myself knitting, crochet & macramé. I've been a patchworker, a soft toy maker and in the 1980 I got myself a knitting machine and for many years gave lessons on them... I have developed my embroidery to include crewel, church and modern three-dimensional techniques, which I have also taught... and not forgetting workshops on Irish crochet... In 1990 I took up bobbin lace and for many years was an addict! I had tried to tat for years with no success but the light finally dawned in December 1997 when I got that illusive flip... At the time I was getting very bored with bobbin lace so I visited my local library and got three books out!!!! Between those and help from the Arachne Lace List members explaining techniques via email I progressed to designing... This is the first medium that I can express myself successfully... :-) I then subscribed to the Tatting Digest & the Tat Chat Digest Lists. I joined the Ring of Tatters after meeting Lyn Morton at the Derby Lace Convention in 1998... I am now seriously infected with the TATTING BUG! :-) To see some of my designs please visit my web site at http://freespace.virgin.net/bo.hanson/Tatting/SuesPatternPage.html Class 1 - Team Teaching with Jane Eborall "BUG IT! with Jane & Sue" Time: Saturday 9 to 11 Techniques: Many! Beginner to Intermediate to Advanced Level: All welcome! Description: Each bug will have at least two beads. Well, bugs have to be able to see where they're going!! Methods of working include using helper threads, working larger rings, use of the lock stitch, finger tatting, how to open a ring, and even undoing a lock join, reversing order of ds for “Topside” tatting, and the difference between up & down joins. If you are a true beginner, never tatted, there will be a tutor to help you get started! GONNA BE FUN? Two mad women armed with shuttle & thread in the same room - anything can happen!!! LOL Supplies: A good sense of humour!!!
