Bobbin Lace! So excited to see it! I do it too! My 'leaves' always turn out as tornadoes... Love the design, especially antenna supports - clever
Thanx for sharing! Can't wait to see your gallery!

I'm really glad you like it I am pleased to hear that you do bobbin lace too, there really isn't much people around doing it. I'd love to see some of your work
Well the leaves thing... I almost lost my nerves before I learned how to make them properly

Lovely work. Is it as difficult to do as it looks? I've been thinking I should learn how to make bobbin lace.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Myrthilla In reply to Carrieliney [2008-02-22 22:17:32 +0000 UTC]

No, it isn't as difficult as it looks It only requires some patience, especially with thin fibers. I wish you good luck with learning, the more we are the better, it's almost forgotten art.

It's so beautifully done. You've got talent and patience. I tried to learn to crochet before, but I gave up - no patience
