Yesterday I was demonstrating at Pioneer Days in Belvidere, IL, and the question was asked - which came first, needle tatting or shuttle tatting? I always thought it was the shuttle, but does anyone know the correct answer?
I came home tired and smokey as I was sitting near a very smokey open wood fire. My costume has gone through the wash and I am hoping my pillow and lace will soon lose the smell. We were very busy with lots of good questions and, of course, the comment that "Oh they are tatting". My companion Brenda was needle tatting, so I always pointed that out.
