Dear Fellow Tatters,
Time is fast approaching for us to do our primary voting for our Tatting
Mascot. Please get the word out to every tatter and lace maker you know.
This is the last week for submitting a nomination. I had requested you to
send in drawings or pictures of your nominations to help others see what you
had in mind. So far all I have received are a total of "four" pictures.
A tatted Space Shuttle
Mark's (TatMan) Squirrel "Nuts About Tatting"
" " The three MuskaTATS
" " (just received today, one you have not seen before)
Puss N Boots,(Tatting on cloths and boots with
needle and thread and shuttle.)(All for One - Tatting for All)
If we don't get pictures of your nominations, believe me, it's going to be
tough competition against the ones with pictures. You have one week. So
please get busy.
Here's the list so far:
Spider and Web
Hedgehog
Frog (because he says Rep it, Rip it, Rip it.)
Cat (loves to play with thread and tatting)
Puss N Boots (Shuttle as Shield and Needle as Sword)
Dolphin (shaped like shuttle, could have needle in mouth)
Kangaroo (with ball of thread and needle in pouch and shuttle in hand
tatting)
Turtle (slow but steady like many of us)
Dragonfly (body a needle and wings, shuttles)
Woodpecker (sound of Rat a Tat, Tat, Tat)
Cricket (sounds like clicking of shuttle)
Mark's (Tat Man) 3 Muskatats
Shuttle Bug
Mark's (Tat Man) Squirrel (collecting nuts like all of us nuts, who love
tatting)
Fish (shaped like a shuttle)
Space Shuttle (It goes around the world like all us tatters and the streams
in the sky are like the thread; the straight streams like the needles.)
Owl
Box of Chocolates
Butterfly
And that's a whole lot of choices, so you see why a picture will help your
nomination.
My list of tatting guilds is slowly building up, but I'm sure there are
others out there I've not gotten contact addresses for. I don't want anyone
left out. Please help me get the word out. I need all of you to help me.
Georgia Seitz is working on setting up the voting site for us, with
automatic vote counting, so there's no cheating on counting the votes. : )
Here's to a happy outcome of voting and to OUR NEW TATTING MASCOT.
