No Meetings Until?

There will not be a Greater Milwaukee Tatting Guild meeting in April. This is, of course, due to the social distancing requirements brought about by the coronavirus. The date when we will be able to gather together again, depends on the situation with the coronavirus in future months.

Until then, stay home, keep tatting, stay safe and stay healthy!

February Tatting and Macaroons

 A colorful, yummy treat of macaroons was enjoyed alongside our tatting at this meeting, held at Brookfield Square shopping mall food court, 95 N Moorland Rd, Brookfield, WI.
 I brought some Japanese tatting books to show, recently acquired from the estate of Barbara Gordon who passed away on January 16. 
This photo of Barbara Gordon was taken on June 12, 2017

A Better Place

 New year, new meeting location! 
Brookfield Square shopping mall, 95 N Moorland Rd, Brookfield, WI 53005 in the food court.

Plenty of room with good lighting, and the fireplace adds a cozy atmosphere! 

 We enjoyed our tatting projects and looking at the pictures in this Russian tatting book, Frivolite by Nata Abrosimova. No need to know the language, as the pictures and diagrams in the book are very clear. More information about this book is here.
