I have contacted Janette asking about the shipping to Malaysia.<br /><br />I hope in time I will be able to share my tatting artwork on my blog so that others will be interested (and not feel intimidated) to learn it.Farahhttp://www.bungatelur.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019762.post-81543863284454564962010-06-07T12:16:36.983-04:002010-06-07T12:16:36.983-04:00Kelly, I did want to mention that the diagram on t...Kelly, I did want to mention that the diagram on the dragon was hard for me to follow. I plan to enlarge it and add numbers and arrows. It was mainly to show which shuttle to use for what but since I did things differently to begin with, I couldn't pay attention to it. I used it mostly to know where to make joins. I did not use the SSSR because I used two shuttles throughout and just made Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019762.post-1601238259993903542010-06-07T12:10:09.204-04:002010-06-07T12:10:09.204-04:00Fox, I want to do the Chinese dragon too AND AND A...Fox, I want to do the Chinese dragon too AND AND AND (notice the empahsis?) I intend to make at least one of Karey's dragons. I started one at a tat day in Hector but have since cut the thread off the shuttles. I didn't really want to tat it in the color I had.

She writes mysteries about all kinds of needlework scenarios.
