I am currently trying to learn tatting. It's hard! My fingers are staging a coup against my body and brains to do what THEY want. Selfish bastids!
Not my work, just example of tatting.

I want to preface this by saying that I am a lover of books and have been since elementay school so please trust me when I say this book was ready for life as a box.I have a few shabby books I'd like to do this to but must get David to teach me the ins and outs of constructing a wood box.I'm not one for measuring stuff though so not sure how that would go.
