And this week we learned SPLIT RINGS, and the shoe lace trick! I told them that they are no longer beginning tatters!
What's next??? Well we still have adding beads, self closing mock ring, multi shuttle tatting and dare I try to teach clunies????
I LOVE TATTING! ....and I am soooo happy that my girls (who are now good friends as well as students) love tatting too!

I am amazed! Are you sure they were beginners? LOL You have done a great job and so quickly. I love the picture of you. You are beaming!
They all look so happy!!! Congrats to them all!! Yea the unwinding of the thread is a pain in the behind. Using your feet also works if you are alone or no one will help HA HA!!! You are a wonderful teacher!!!

I think I really, really, really need to come to take lessons with all you girls!
Oh, that looks like such fun! I still need to learn clunies. My problem is that I keep losing the tension on the middle thread of the loom and end up with a big mess. I know I'll master them one day. Oh yeah, I just use my feet to unwind my HDT. Heh.
Oooo .... How I envy the fun time that you are all having
Oh how I wish I had tatting friends, I can't seem to teach anyone the flip. Be very proud.
How nice that tatting has been a gateway to friendship in a community where you don't even speak the native language.Are you learning some Korean or do your friends speak English? What an awesome trade if you learn another language while teaching someone to tat.
Congratulations Sherry you should be very proud of yourself. You must be a great teacher to have taught your beginners all that you have in such a short period of time. It looks like you are having as much fun as they are which is great. Keep up the shinning example.
WOW! That is awesome! Your students are doing fabulous work! That is really something for all of you to be proud of! What a good teacher you are, Sherry! :)
Wow! They are fast learners and you must be the best teacher in the world :)
Clyde is right--you should be very proud of what you have accomplished since moving to South Korea!
'Ditto' to all of the above...what a joy to see you and your students succeed! Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.
Hey Sherry
Thanks for posting the way to estimate thread. I followed your easy to understand directions and I got the correct amount of thread but not on the correct shuttles.
Do you have any thoughts on what I might have done wrong.

Thank you everyone for your encouraging comments!
Hi Connie,
Please email me at ladyshuttlemaker@hotmail.com
with a bit more info and I'll see if I can help you. (:
Congratulations, you must be an incredible good teacher because those girls have come a very long way in a very short time. Soon they will be able to do a lot more techical stuff than I am able to after may years of tatting.
Be very proud of yourself.
What fun you are all having! When's the next plane to Seoul?? Congratulations to all of you - your hard work is yielding such beautiful results.
I am really so happy for you and your new friends. I am amazed at how much they have learned. You are a wonderful teacher. I wish I were there to take lessons as well. Your friends already know more than I do :-) I have plans to be in Boise in May are you going to be home by then?
Bonnie,
I have no idea what our future holds or where we are going next....but I will certainly let you know if I am in Boise in May.....(OH wouldn't that be so awesome!)
The joy and friendship that tatting brings, whee! Congrats to you & your students.
