A fellow lace-maker would like to do the floral torchon waterlily pattern
by Geraldine Stott. Has anyone else attempted this pattern? Is there a
picture of the finished piece anywhere? Is this a torchon version of a
Bucks pattern? If so, where can we get a picture of that? :) any
information
Hi Sharon,
I'll answer your questions instead of having it go through Angela.
I used Pipers Silk 210/2 in very light yellow for the rose petals and
green for the leaves. It was worked in raised and rolled technique.
Idid enlarge the pattern by 10%, but now that the rose is finished and off

There's a picture of the Bucks version in A Visual Introduction to Bucks Point

someone else will know.

Spring has sprung, at least for this week, probably enough to fool the
daffodils.

Dear Secret Pal,
Thank you for this month's package - it arrived the middle of this week. I
love the bobbin. I'll have to choose some interesting beads to spangle it
with. The notepad and the sticky notes are great especially the really
little ones. I run a book club with my 7th graders

Hi Ya'll,
Does anyone out there know where I can print out a bobbin inventory list. I
saw one somewhere before but I didn't have any ink in the printer. Now I have
ink and can't find the site. :) Just my luck.
Thanks,
