Hi all,
You don't need a pillow and bobbins to do bobbinlace LOL! I used a half

Well done you. I can see that you have improved as you went round
the piece. Quite a challenge for your first piece I think, roseground
can take a little getting your head round, if it's your 3rd or 4th

This is great -- how much more personal can you get wearing lace. Your
inspiration really sets the imagination going -- how about an all cloth
stitch head with all of the weavers having beads hung on the ends over the
ears and around the nape? Could it then be jeweled lace?
I would love to
