Flat Style Tatting Shuttles

Cocobolo, Maple Burl and Birdseye Maple are the woods used by Dave to craft these beautiful flat style tatting shuttles.  Be sure and watch our Etsy shop for more tatting shuttles in the future!

Walnut Flat Style Tatting Shuttle

This beautiful walnut tatting shuttle is 3 1/4 inches long by 1 1/8 inch wide and 1/4 inch thick.  Dave made the resin adornment by making a mold of an antique button. Beeswax was used to finish this shuttle, and it has been initialed and dated by Dave.

New Upcycled Flat Style Tatting Shuttles

Six new flat style tatting shuttles were listed in the "Fiber Art Tool" section of our Etsy shop today.  These shuttles are 3 1/4 inches long by 1 1/8 inch wide and 1/4 inch thick. Dave made the resin adornments by making a mold of an antique button, and beeswax was used to finish the shuttles.

Swiss Pear Flat Style Tatting Shuttle with Carved Rose Motif

Swiss Pear was the wood chosen by Dave to create this beautiful 3 1/4 inch long flat style tatting shuttle. He has carved his signature rose and leaf motif onto one side, and painted it with acrylic paint. Diamond glaze was used to seal the paint to protect it from wear. Beeswax was used to finish this shuttle.  You can find this little beauty for sale in our Etsy shop.

The Return of the Queen!

.....the "Little Queen Bee" tatting shuttle, that is!  It’s been a while since Dave has made any tatting shuttles. Since he can no longer do the intricate small work required for the more elaborate shuttles, he is going to concentrate on flat shuttles.

This “Little Queen Bee” flat shuttle has been a favorite of our tatting customers (it sold in our Etsy shop before I could get it posted here or on Facebook, but there will be more in the future). Made from upcycled blinds, it is super lightweight and very smooth to the touch with its beeswax finish.
