I recently visited the old homeplace and when I went inside, I could just see her sitting in her chair in the corner of the living room sipping hot tea from her teacup (which I have in my china hutch) and tatting. Does anyone here know what tatting is? My grandmother has been gone for almost 25 years, but she is still alive in my heart.
Isn't tatting like lacemaking? I think it's so great that you have such a strong bond with your grandmother... and her memory. I am the same way.
