And they manage, somehow, to be around my couch corner (left, right, in front of me). <br />It will evolve into the last stage, I know it. I am protected (still) by the fact that I like the sterling old ones... But if I would find here a store or an antiquities shop, I know would fall for the first shuttle I would find (Corina Meyfeldthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06844434064357347990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29831661.post-82995602961660543522014-03-08T17:51:23.435-08:002014-03-08T17:51:23.435-08:00I really enjoyed your post.

The idea that someone else used it lovingly and made beautiful things with it. They're all awesome. I don't own too many new shuttles, but I imagine that won't last long ...

I am not your avera...Great post, Sharon!9252332 70<br /><br />I am not your average tatter! I do not want more shuttles than I use... So I have about 12 LaCossette Aerlits and 8 Sunlits, for variety That’s it. If I don’t use a shuttle it gets gifted. <br /><br />Same with thread. If I don’t like a thread it goes to a new home. Managed to keep things sort of simple. <br /><br />Now tatting books and patterns... that Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12889386206601730189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29831661.post-22689316241647597592014-03-06T15:26:15.724-08:002014-03-06T15:26:15.724-08:00Love Marty's "acquisitive"!

Most are utilitarian plastic Aero-style (covered with fancy papers -- I vowed never to tat with plain gray again), but I have a few fancy ones I keep just for home.

I have new ones still in the packages (just in case I can't find an empty shuttle when I need another one), shuttles from years back that the plastic pics have been used so often that they're worn down and not very useful, shuttles in every room.... yes, I am definitely a shuttle hoarder.
