Jean has always been interested in threads and textiles making dolls clothes as a child, while weaving and spinning came later. She came across a bobbin lace instruction book in a local bookshop twenty years ago and sparked her love of making lace. Little did she know how it would change her life! Jean started teaching lace making in 1987 with a class full of complete beginners and now teaches weekend and longer classes. She fell in love with Bedfordshire lace when she first saw Margaret Turners Bedfordshire Lace Patterns in 1988, and while she makes other laces, Bedfordshire is still her favorite.
In Jeans class you may work on something of your own choosing or a pattern provided by the tutor, sort out problems, discuss future projects and perhaps try some simple designing! Needed are the usual bobbin lace supplies; pens, pencils &p paper for notes and designing. Susan Wenzel will be teaching Starts, Finishes & Cornersa.k.a.
