Hi every one! So...I have some tatting done and I was wondering...how do I attach the finished tatted lace onto something like a hankerchief or skirt edge or something? Thanks for your help!

I would use a really small zig-zag stitch or something similar
I like to tat too
Did you use a shuttle or did you use a needle?
I like the shuttle myself.

Chelsey- I have tatted directly onto the hankie before, or you can do chain stitch right on the hem to tie into as well as sewing it on with the machine.

Thanks so much Connie! I was thinking about maybe doing that. I don't have a sewing machine.
