Tatting has something in common with music – the moment of creation. Every finger has its role, just like when playing the xylophone.

When I studied at the Academy of Music, I won a competition for playing miniatures and received a book on Greece, the country of my ancestors, as a prize. Years later my son noticed a girl in the book holding a shuttle and tatting, just as I had been doing for many years.

Since I learned tatting, I have had a shuttle in my hands every day. My works are on every continent except Antarctica.
