Patterns only - does not demonstrate techniques, Oct 20 2010

This review is from: Tatting Jewellery (Paperback)
I'm new to tatting and have never worked with beads. I expected this book to have some sort of graphics with how-tos... this is not the case. It has some beautiful patterns of jewelry - earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and pendants, but not one section on how to do it. Like the other reviewer (at this time there is only one) said - this is not a how-to book - it is a pattern book. I also did not like that the choice of threads was limited to her promo - would like to see other thread options and see the jewelry done in other threads (not just the metallics). All that said - I'm glad I bought it - the pieces are beautiful and I can't wait to make some of them!

Huge disappointment, Oct 22 2010

This review is from: Tatting Jewellery (Paperback)
I enjoy tatting and I really wanted to like this book. The patterns are not difficult, simple tatting dominated by beads and more beads. There's not much here to interest an experienced tatter, just more of what you see on the cover. If I'd known that was the extent of it, I would not have purchased the book. I almost gave it two stars but that seemed harsh since someone else may think the designs are wonderful. They remind me of my grandmother's costume jewelry. I found more interesting and attractive tatted jewelry patterns online for free.
