I forgot to mention that I am self-taught for tatting, and also for the the start of Needlelace. I was lucky to have a nice lady,- now sadly passed on - who helped and encouraged me at various Lace Days where we would meet every 2 months.
I had been struggling on my own for a couple of years, then I managed to get a 4 day workshop with Margaret Stevens (she is on NL Talk ) and I went home, the first day, and told my husband "Now I understand what the books are telling me "!!! She was brilliant and really got me sorted out, - and I have never looked back! I used to do embroidery as a child, so maybe those early years of needlework has lain dormant, till I discovered needlelace!! I do more NL than bobbin lace these days!!
