Tatting Shuttles of American Collectors

This book is dedicated to my tatting instructor Aunt Stella Estey. It is an accumulation of 12 years of research into the history of American tatting shuttles. The book is a six by nine inch soft cover book with 144 pages, 12 with color plates. Over 300 shuttles are illustrated dating from the mid-nineteenth through the twentieth century.
