I have just be studying my copy of âTatting Artistry in Threadsâ by Helma Siemann, and see that she has glued her multitude of Josephine Knots etc, to Art board, to form the pictures (which are lovely) Is this an acceptable way of fixing tatting to a background â and would it be accepted by a Judge in a competition?
I have only ever stitched lace to a fabric background, so am quite taken aback by this method, and am wondering if Show and Competition Judges would pass that method, - or would they disqualify the piece? Personally, I cannot see what is wrong with it, as the pieces will never be used, or removed from the setting, - so why not, -- but I wonder if it would be acceptable when up against other pieces for Judging. I would be interested in other peopleâs thought on it- especially if you are a Judge at Shows! Regards from Liz. L.
