My New Checkbook and my Videos on Left Handed Tatting

Well, I've made a decision to make some YouTube videos on tatting.  I researched the videos and couldn't find anything on tatting for a left hander.  I am left handed and have taught over 400 people to tat through the local university's continuing education program.  I have figured out how to do the video with my computer and so I'm going to try it.  The videos I have seen people do are not very clear and they are tatting too fast to follow.  So, I'm going to slow it way down.  We'll see how it goes, but I think it would be fun.  




I have finished my first check book and added it to my Etsy.  I thought it turned out very well and it is easy to get the tatted cover on and off the checkbook.  It is very frilly, so it's going to take someone in love with lace to like it.  Let me know what you think about the check book and also my idea of videos for left handed tatters, okay?

That is the most beautiful checkbook cover I've ever seen!

I love the tatted checkbook cover - it's just beautiful! My mother is lefthanded and taught me to knit even tho I am right handed. It's very difficult to teach someone who is other handed so a few left handed tatting videos would be a terrific thing!

What I wouldn't have given for a left-handed tatting video back when I was learning! (1980)

Do share the link so I can go view the video immediately. Can't tell you how thrilling it was to read that you are also a left-handed tatter.

Everywhere I go, I seem to be the only one. But I knew I wasn't alone!
