Celtic Button Teapot Pattern

Do you remember this teapot I showed you once?


The pattern appeared in the Feb 2011 issue of Tatting Times.  Apparently, a lot of folks don't have a subscription (why not? you should!), because I get a lot of requests for it.

I have taken the original pattern and added diagrams and in-progress pictures.  Thank you to Jane, Sherry, and Stephanie for thoroughly test tatting.

I will put it for sale in my Etsy shop as an instant digital download of a pdf file to print. (Yes, that poor neglected shop that went on vacation mode when I moved and stayed that way until now.)

I haven't used Etsy in sooo long, and I haven't tried the digital download feature before, so I'm a little afraid of messing it up.  So here's the game plan:  I will start with listing one copy.  Will whoever buys that let me know if it worked OK, and then I will list more copies.

Update: Margaret assured me I was worrying for nothing, since she has sold with this service with no problems.  Isdihara bought the trial copy and says it worked fine.  Yay! I am open for business.

  1. My shop is closed while I am ill, I did an instant download file and it was great, all I had to was list it in the normal way and download the pattern and tat was it, I put 20 copies and it automaticly re lists it and I have nothing to do just collect the money.
    I recommend it.
    Lovely pattern, I love the colours

    1. Sorry to hear you are ill. I'm hoping the Etsy download service will work for me as well as you say.

    1. If you click on the words "Tatting Times" above, there should be a link that will take you there. It is a little newsletter/booklet put out by Karey Solomon.
