The idea for a new tatting group – The Fringe Element Tatters – originated at a Tat ’n Chat in Creemore, Ontario in August 2005.
We are based in Southern Ontario, but have members from across Canada, the US and even the UK, Australia and India.
Membership fees are just 1 small tatted heart per year – although we gladly accept more. These hearts are used at public events to help fulfill our mission “to show and teach as many people as possible how to tat”.
We encourage our members to participate in tatting exchanges throughout the year and organize local Tat ‘n Chat’s in their area.
Each September we host our major event (this year in Cambridge, Ontario). Classes for our “Fall into Tatting” weekend always include beginner needle & shuttle tatting as well as more advanced techniques. Because our group is multi-talented, we also include a non-tatting needlecraft.
Anyone interested in joining the fun should contact us at FringeTatters@gmail.com
