Hi Everybody: Iâve often thought about using the flat pattern pieces from a sewing pattern as a guide to making lace. If you were doing a part lace you could easily design it so there was a space left between two pieces of flat lace, and when you were done you could use simple braids to connect one to the other and it would make a shaped piece. Theoretically itâs easy peasey. In real life ⦠well, Iâm planning to try it this summer. Weâll see how it goes.

Imagine working on a pillow that was shaped like a womanâs body. How would you form the lace around that shape? Those of you who have worked 3D lace might have some idea how to do this, but I would find it extremely challenging. Or perhaps, how would you cut and construct a (flat) lace fabric to create a particular style, a jacket or suit or â¦.? - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
