Blue and Yellow Tatting Doilies

Two Blue and Yellow Tatting Doilies made by FairyLacefromElena

Blue and Yellow Tatting Doilies, or vintage shuttle and modern meaning.

Hello everyone!๐ŸŒธ
Do you enjoy receiving gifts? Youโ€™ll probably say itโ€™s a silly question โ€” because who doesnโ€™t love presents? ๐ŸŽ Oh, I truly adore them!

โœจ Look at this absolutely amazing tatting shuttle that my dear friend Edna sent me as a gift! ๐Ÿ’Œ It has the name James Lees & Sons engraved on it.

The James Lees and Sons Co. was an American textile manufacturer founded in Bridgeport, Pennsylvania. The company operated from the early 20th century and specialized in producing yarn, carpets, fabrics, and accessories for handicrafts. In 1956, it was even listed in the Fortune 500, ranking 409th with a revenue of $71.3 million and 3,500 employees. ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿญ

But whether these tatting shuttles were made in very small numbers, or whether it was just too long ago, I couldnโ€™t find detailed information about mine. ๐Ÿค”
๐Ÿ‘‰ If you know anything about tatting shuttles produced by James Lees & Sons, please share in the comments!

Of course, I couldnโ€™t resist trying this shuttle in action. โœจ It feels so light, comfortable, and pleasant to the touch. Working with beautiful tools is pure joy โ€” it turns every process into true creativity! ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿงต

The name of these Blue and Yellow Tatting Doilies

By the way, at the request of my dear friend Edna, I made three doilies with blue and yellow threads. You know that these are the colors of the Ukrainian flag. Two doilies are made according to my own pattern. ๐ŸงตGuess what I called this pattern? Of cource, I named it after a wonderful talented lady with a big heart, who constantly helps and supports me and my country in these terrible times. ๐ŸŒท

Finally, I invite you to watch a short video where I demonstrate this shuttle: ๐ŸŽฅ๐Ÿงต https://www.youtube.com/shorts/MbDO7qvsxB0

Free Antique tatting lace

A fragment of tatting lace and machine embroidery - border on a handkerchief with a monogram.

Free Antique tatting lace, or let’s give new life to old patterns!

Hello, everyone! Recently, I was commissioned to create a charming collection of handkerchiefs with embroidery and tatted lace. ๐Ÿชกโœจ
One of the patterns I used caught my heart immediately โ€” I discovered it in an old booklet printed back in the 1930s! Isn’t that amazing?

 

Free Antique tatting lace 1

So simple, yet so sweet โ€” this little gem of a design was just asking to be shared. ๐Ÿ’–
And how could I resist?

This blog post will be short ๐Ÿฌ โ€” just a few helpful notes to accompany the video tutorial.
As you probably know, I love adding videos to my posts, and I hope this one brings you both joy and practical tips!

๐ŸŽฅ Watch the tutorial here:
๐Ÿ‘‰https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hhM84oTQ2E

๐Ÿ“œ Pattern Diagram & Instructions


First of all, you can take a closer look at the diagram and written instructions right here โ€” just scroll down. โฌ‡๏ธ
Or, if you prefer to keep this vintage treasure in your own collection, feel free to download the file using the link below:

๐Ÿ“https://drive.google.com/file/d/1I-wHpNrNnbFis7yyW3mGncmXkHncOGxT/view?usp=sharing

๐Ÿ”„ Starting from the Back? Yes, Please!

Did you notice that we start from the back side of the work? Thatโ€™s a very important detail!
Why? Because it allows us to make all the Rings from the front side, which is so much more convenient โ€” and prettier too! ๐Ÿ’กโœจ

You probably also spotted the little “paperclip” icon on the diagram. ๐Ÿค“
Now, let me share a secret with you:
Personally, when working with fine threads, I much prefer using a short piece of extra thread instead of an actual paperclip.
Why? Well, the clip can leave a rather noticeable hole, and as you may already know โ€”
Iโ€™m all about that Perfect Tatting! ๐Ÿ’–
(If youโ€™ve read my previous blog posts, Iโ€™m sure you saw that coming. ๐Ÿ˜‰)

๐Ÿงต A Tiny Twist for Perfect Rings!

Hereโ€™s something else to notice in the video:
I add an extra half of a double stitch at the end of each ring, and then pull the shuttle through the loop on my hand before forming the next one. ๐Ÿ”„โœจ

Now, donโ€™t get me wrong โ€” Iโ€™m not saying this is the only way to do it!
As we all know, tatting is not dogma โ€” itโ€™s an art! ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿชก

Butโ€ฆ if you like your rings to look perfectly symmetrical and neat, this little touch might just become your new favorite trick! ๐Ÿ˜‰

๐Ÿชก Needle Tatters, This One’s for You!

If you’re working with a needle instead of shuttles, Iโ€™ve got a little tip for you too! ๐Ÿคซ
Iโ€™ve actually shared a video about it earlier, but hereโ€™s the trick in short:

Before closing the ring, give the thread with the double stitches a single twist.
Thatโ€™s it!

With this simple move, you wonโ€™t need to tie extra knots after each ring. ๐Ÿ’ก
Itโ€™s especially lovely when you make two or three rings in a row โ€” the result looks smooth and seamless! โœจ๐Ÿ’•

๐Ÿงต Want to Add a Corner or a Curved Edge?
If you’d like to turn this lace into a corner or create a curved shape instead of a straight edge โ€” youโ€™ll find extra diagrams and tips in the full pattern available in my shop.

How to Make Ring with Curled

Red tatting earrings heart with curled

How to Make Ring with Curled, or Two-Needle Tatting Tutorial

Hello, everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹

๐Ÿ˜• Unfortunately, I received very few comments on my teaser video for the “How to Make a Curled Ring” tutorial. Honestly, I felt a bit confused and even a little shy. Is this topic not interesting for you? Or maybe my explanations werenโ€™t clear enough? Perhaps social media users just skip the video descriptions? ๐Ÿ˜…
Orโ€ฆ did you miss my short call-to-action video on YouTube?

๐Ÿ“ฃ If so, maybe itโ€™s time to subscribe and become a little more active on my channel?

How to Make Ring with Curled 1

โœจ But no worries! Iโ€™ve decided to treat my most loyal and curious followers. So today I present to you a detailed step-by-step tutorial and supporting video on how to make a Curled Ring using two-needle tatting technique!

To get started, youโ€™ll need just a few simple tools:
โœจ thread,
โœจ two tatting needles of the same size,
โœจshort pieces of contrasting thread, each about 10 cm (4 inches) long,
โœจ and a small pair of scissors.

๐Ÿ” Important note: Make sure your thread thickness matches the size of your needles. I used #5 tatting needles and #10 mercerized cotton thread.

How to Make Ring with Curled 2

๐Ÿงฐ What Youโ€™ll Need for to Make Ring with Curled

But donโ€™t worry โ€” you can choose different needles and threads. In this case, it wonโ€™t affect the technique, only the final size of the curled ring. So feel free to experiment! ๐ŸŽจ๐Ÿ˜Š

How to Make Ring with Curled 3

๐Ÿ”น Step 1: Start with the First Needle

Take the first needle and make 3 double stitches.

โœ‚๏ธ The needle thread can be around 20โ€“30 cm long โ€” short enough to handle easily, but long enough so it doesnโ€™t slip out of the needle. Just make sure itโ€™s comfortable to work with!

๐Ÿ”น Step 2: Work with the Second Needle

Now take the second needle and make 25 double stitches using the ball thread.

Here are two important tips to keep in mind:
1๏ธโƒฃ Hold the needle backward, with the eye of the needle pointing forward.
2๏ธโƒฃ Start your stitches right next to the ones made with the first needle. There should be no gap between them!

These small details make a big difference โ€” so donโ€™t skip them! ๐Ÿ˜‰

How to Make Ring with Curled 4

๐Ÿ”น Step 3: Measure and Cut the Ball Thread

Now that you have 25 double stitches on the second needle, itโ€™s time to measure out 4.5 meters of the ball thread and cut it off.

โœ‚๏ธ This way, youโ€™ll have a long enough thread to complete the entire curled ring without needing to add more thread later.

Plus, youโ€™ll now have a free end of the ball thread that can easily be inserted into the eye of the second needle. Neat and practical! ๐Ÿ˜‰

๐Ÿ”นHow to Make Ring with Curled Step 4: Forming the First Chain

Insert the free end of long cut thread into the eye of the second needle.
Then gently pull the thread through the 25 double stitches, forming an Cain.

๐Ÿšซ Donโ€™t rush! Try not to tangle the long piece of thread.
But donโ€™t worry โ€” with every new Chain, the thread will become shorter, and pulling it through will get easier and easier. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

โš ๏ธ Be very careful at this step!
Before tightening the arc completely, insert a helper thread into the loop at the base of the Chain.

โœจ This little trick will do you a big favor:
โœ”๏ธ it makes shaping the curl much easier,
โœ”๏ธ it keeps the end of the Chain neat and strong,
โœ”๏ธ and it helps you gently arrange the curled elements later.

Youโ€™ll thank yourself for taking this extra step! ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿงถ

๐Ÿ”น Step 5: Tighten the Chain

Now tighten the chain well to create a nice, clean curl.

โœจ And hereโ€™s what you should have โ€” a beautiful, elegant swirl forming before your eyes!

๐Ÿ”น Step 6: Continue Working with the First Needle

Pull the thread out of the second needle (you can set it aside for now) and use this long ball thread to make 8 double stitches on the first needle.

Youโ€™re now slowly building the total number of stitches needed to form the ring on the first needle.

๐Ÿ” Important: Do not pull the first needle through your work yet โ€” keep it in place until itโ€™s time to close the ring.

๐Ÿ”น How to Make Ring with Curled Step 7: Repeat and Create the Full Pattern

Now bring the second needle back into action and repeat Steps 2 through 6.

That means youโ€™ll be making 6 curled chains, with 8 double stitches in between them โ€” all on the first needle.

โš ๏ธ Attention!
At the very end, instead of 8 double stitches, make only 5 double stitches on the first needle.

๐ŸŒ€ This way, youโ€™ll have 6 equal segments between the curls โ€” nice, symmetrical, and perfectly balanced.

๐Ÿ”น Step 8: Close the Ring and Finish Your Work How to Make Ring with Curled

Now pull the first needle through all the double stitches you’ve made on it and form the ring.

๐ŸŽ€ Tie a secure knot, hide the thread tails, and trim the excess.

And finally โ€” the most satisfying part! โ€” arrange all the curls nicely.

๐ŸŒŸ (Did you notice how helpful those extra helper threads were? They make it so much easier to shape the curls neatly!)

๐Ÿ”น Finishing Touches โ€“ and a Video Tutorial, Too!

As the final step in your How to Make Ring with Curled project, carefully remove the helper threads, holding the curls gently in place as you do so.

๐Ÿ’ง If needed, you can lightly apply a stiffening solution to the ring to keep its shape โ€” then let it dry completely.

๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ And as always, Iโ€™ve prepared a step-by-step video tutorial to accompany this written guide:
โ€œHow to Make Ring with Curledโ€ โ€” on my YouTube channel! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTYHweVcikw&list=PLmUVrN61lH3xQZumGGsR2DEL1BADRW6cV

If youโ€™ve mastered the How to Make Ring with Curled method and feel inspired to try something a bit more advanced, why not create a whole Heart with Curls?

๐Ÿ’– This lovely heart combines the same swirling elements into a graceful, romantic shape โ€” perfect for gifts, decor, or just pure tatting joy!

Heirloom Hanky with Tatting

Heirloom Hanky with Tatting, or a combination of two of my favorite handicraft techniques.

๐ŸŒธ Hello everyone!

Iโ€™m so happy to share one of my favorite projects with you today โ€” a delicate handkerchief that combines machine embroidery and tatted lace ๐Ÿงตโœจ
This timeless piece was crafted with love, patience, and a deep admiration for heirloom techniques. I adore blending different styles, and this hanky is a perfect example of how tatting and embroidery can work in harmony ๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ Watch the full making-of video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuHVlRgyMWo&t=1s

Close-up of tatting lace with shuttle and blue thread. Delicate tatted lace edging in progress using a shuttle and fine polyester thread โ€“ a close-up look at a handmade heirloom hanky

โœจ The Lace Edging Comes First

Before assembling the hanky, I needed to create a long piece of tatted lace edging. Sounds simple, right? ๐Ÿ˜… But this pattern includes four rows of delicate stitches and picots, all worked with thin polyester thread โ€” just as my client and I agreed. Because of the threadโ€™s fineness and the required length of 1.2 meters, this step was incredibly meticulous ๐Ÿชก๐Ÿ’ 

Despite the challenge, the result was absolutely worth it. The lace looks light, elegant, and strong at the same time โ€” exactly what I needed for an heirloom-quality piece.

๐Ÿ“ Preparing the Base for the Heirloom Handkerchief

The next step in making this heirloom handkerchief was all about precision! ๐Ÿงต First, I cut out a square of paper matching the final size of the hanky. Then, I covered the paper with a piece of transparent plastic. This step might seem simple, but itโ€™s absolutely essential โ€” it helps me pin the lace evenly and accurately ๐Ÿ”

To make sure the lace edging fits perfectly, I gently arranged and pinned it around the square. As a result, the shape and proportions of the future lace hanky are fixed exactly. No guessing, no distortion โ€” just perfect symmetry for a truly vintage handkerchief ๐Ÿ’ซ

 Applying stiffening solution to tatting lace

๐Ÿงด Stiffening the Lace for the Heirloom Hanky with Tatting

To keep the lace edging in perfect shape, the next step is stiffening it with a special solution. โœจ This stage is truly important because it gives the heirloom handkerchief a clean, elegant look that will last for years.

I use a homemade stiffening solution made from leftover embroidery stabilizer โ€” nothing goes to waste in my workshop! ๐ŸŒฟ If you’re curious how I make it, you can read the detailed tutorial on my blog here:
๐Ÿ‘‰ https://fairylace.kozinenko.com/how-to-stiffen-tatting-lace/

So, after applying the solution, I leave the lace to dry naturally. This ensures it stays crisp and beautifully shaped, ready to be sewn onto the fabric square later on. ๐Ÿ’ซ

๐Ÿ’ป Preparing the Embroidery Design for the Heirloom Handkerchief

While the lace was drying, I turned my attention to the embroidery ๐ŸŒผ This step required adapting the design to fit the heirloom handkerchief and meeting the exact wishes of my client. So, I opened my embroidery software and began fine-tuning every little detail.

Believe it or not, to work with my sewing-and-embroidery machine, I had to dive into a whole new world of digital skills! ๐Ÿง โœ‚๏ธ It’s amazing how traditional craftsmanship and modern technology can come together in one project. Learning how to digitize and modify embroidery patterns was challenging โ€” but also exciting. Every project teaches me something new, and thatโ€™s what I love most about handmade work ๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿงบ Preparing the Fabric for the Heirloom Handkerchief

Now it was time to prepare the fabric for embroidery โ€” a delicate and important stage. To start, I carefully smoothed the cotton base to remove every wrinkle ๐Ÿงผ Then, I applied a piece of sticky water-soluble stabilizer to the wrong side of the fabric. This type of stabilizer is incredibly helpful, especially when working on a Heirloom Hanky with Tatting project like this one!

Because the lace and embroidery must align perfectly, every step here must be precise. The sticky stabilizer keeps the fabric steady while I embroider, so thereโ€™s no puckering or shifting during the stitching process. As a result, the final piece turns out both beautiful and professional โœจ

๐Ÿชก Hooping the Fabric for the Heirloom Handkerchief

Next, I carefully placed the fabric into the embroidery hoop. This step might seem simple, but itโ€™s actually one of the most crucial! ๐Ÿง In order to keep the design crisp and aligned, the fabric must be inserted without pulling, stretching, or twisting it.

To ensure the embroidery lines are perfectly placed, I double-checked the printed guidelines and adjusted the hoop gently. That way, when the embroidery machine starts its dance, every stitch lands exactly where it should. ๐Ÿงšโ€โ™€๏ธ Proper hooping is what gives the heirloom handkerchief its polished, symmetrical look โ€” just like a fine vintage piece!

 Romantic embroidery with two hearts on heirloom handkerchief

๐Ÿงต Embroidering the Heart of the Heirloom Handkerchief

Now comes the most exciting part โ€” embroidery! โœจ Itโ€™s always a delight to watch how, stitch by stitch, the design appears on the once-empty fabric. Like a slow bloom, the gentle lines take shape, forming a romantic pattern with two tiny hearts at its center ๐Ÿ’•.

This stage always feels like magic. For a heirloom handkerchief, every thread carries meaning โ€” especially when created with love and care. The embroidery machine hums softly, and I canโ€™t take my eyes off it. It’s a process I could watch endlessly. Just like in fairy tales, the invisible becomes visible โ€” and beauty is born. ๐ŸŒน

Once the embroidery was finished, I gently rinsed the stabilizer in warm water and allowed the fabric to dry completely โ˜€๏ธ This step is essential โ€” it ensures the fabric returns to its natural softness and shape. Then the true magic begins!

With a fine needle and a thimble, I slowly and carefully hand-stitched the tatted lace onto the fabric, following the marked lines with precision and love. ๐Ÿชก Of course, you could use a sewing machine to do this. In fact, I have a helpful video tutorial showing how to attach tatting lace to fabric here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akpnypHDdW8&t=125s

However, for this heirloom handkerchief, I chose the old-fashioned way โ€” slow, mindful stitching by hand. It brings a sense of connection and authenticity that no machine can replace. ๐Ÿ’ซ

๐Ÿชฎ Finishing Touches for the Heirloom Hanky with Tatting


To complete the heirloom handkerchief, I carefully folded the fabric edges and shaped the corners neatly. Using pins, I fixed the folds in place, making sure every side was straight and precise. This process requires a gentle hand and a keen eye for detail ๐Ÿ”

Then, I used my sewing machine Bernina to stitch the hem, securing the edges with clean, even lines. โœ‚๏ธ Once the sewing was done, I gave the handkerchief a final press with the iron โ€” a satisfying step that brings out its crisp, elegant look. Finally, I wrapped the piece carefully, ready for delivery and joyful unboxing! ๐ŸŽ

Every heirloom carries a story, and Iโ€™m thrilled to pass this one on to its new owner โ€” with all my heart in every stitch. ๐Ÿ’—

Perfect tatting โ€“ part 3

Small square tatting doily

Perfect tatting โ€“ part 3

Hello everyone! This is the third lesson in the series Perfect Tatting. You can read the second part here: https://fairylace.kozinenko.com/perfect-tatting-part-2/

My articles will be accompanied by video tutorials. I will add them to my YouTube channel.

Please write in the comments what subtleties you would like to know. Then it will be easier for me to make a lessons plan.

Perfect tatting โ€“ part 3

Today is a very short article and a short video. Just watch how to make a strong knot that is almost impossible to untie. Of course, if you want to, you can untie everything! LOL! But will the result be worth our efforts? This knot is useful when building up threads or at the end of work. Agree, this is very important. Imagine, knots untied after starching the work. Holes, holes, holes. This can break the heart of any needle crafters!

Surely many of you successfully use this knot in your work. And some of you, perhaps, should practice with me! Oh, I almost forgot to emphasize. No strong knot can cancel out hiding the tails of the threads! But more about that in the next lessons. The video is already uploaded on my channel, welcome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvIRiqEqOFE&list=UULF3dn4_9pp7tIKA2k564wLBQ

Perfect Tatting โ€“ Part 3 is finished! Have a great weekend and happy perfect tatting!
