Shop Update Information

Afternoon. How is everyone doing in these strange times? I'm not too bad. As you probably noticed, I decided to scale back my Etsy shop in March to just my tatting patterns. What with the UK lockdown in progress, I was becoming too anxious to work on physical orders. For the past few months I've been trying to relax with other crafts, writing, reading and baking. I've also been working out a plan to get back into the swing of things. So, in this blog post, I intend to explain the changes for my shop.

The first major change, at least for the next few months, is that I will only be selling within the UK. This is due to a delay in shipments to other countries. Really sorry about that. Any items I list can be repeated, so don't worry, you won't be missing out on any One Of A Kind pieces.

The second change is in how I list creations. I normally add them as Made to Order but currently, I cannot guarantee that my suppliers haven't been impacted so instead, I will be tatting the items first and then listing them in batches. The first of these will be tomorrow at 5pm UK time in my Etsy shop.

The pieces will be a mixture of old favourites and new colourways and I will make sure they are all letterbox friendly.

Stay safe,
Heather xxx

Spinning in Progress

Good afternoon everyone. I hope you had a lovely weekend. 

I have decided to spend this week focusing on work in progress pieces. I have three loom knitting, many tatting and one spinning project to finish. Why do I always end up with several creations on the go at once lol. 

So here's my latest spindle spinning.

It's my first time spinning Blue Faced Leicester roving and I've thoroughly enjoyed it! I've just finished chain plying it and it's ready for a bath.

When we have better weather, I will be photographing my newly hand spun yarn and adding it to my website TataniaRosa.co.uk 

In other news I've relisted a pair of gothic lace dangle earrings in my Etsy shop here.

Have a nice Monday,
