Disclaimer:
The author is not sponsored by any of the people or organizations mentioned here. I give addresses of needlework shops and online shops, only to help people who would like to learn to tat and do not know where to buy basic equipment. Where I live, it is quite difficult to find information about tatting and tatting materials. These addresses have especially been compiled for people who live in Flanders, Belgium. Of course, people can search the Internet themselves, but it may take them a long time before they find what they are really looking for.

Machine tatting:
On this website, it looks to me as if patterns for tatting  are being converted into machine embroidery. I find it interesting, but I feel no competition!

Godmothers and fathers in tatting

Thank you : Fairy Godmothers and Godfathers in tatting land!

 

This is a list of the tatting blogs that I visited at least once in the past, I keep it for reference. I am very grateful to all these people for helping me to become more interested in tatting and to fully enjoy this modern craft. I don’t know why most blog addresses here end in .be, while others don’t. The order in which people appear is the order in which I found them or grouped by language.  Some bloggers appear twice, because of the language they (can) write in. If anyone dislikes the order of names, I will change them to an alphabetical order.

If you want me to add or change anything in this list; if I you want me to add your name, or if you don’t like to see your name or URL here, please drop me a line! Thank you very much for teaching the world to tat!
