Morning All
Just to put in my 2 pennorth I started to teach myself around 3
years ago, from a book. the first piece of lace I produced was
abysmal! But I was proud of it! I then joined a couple of Lace
Groups and found that one of them had a class. I started going, my
Hi Daphne et al,
I do realise that, for many people, lace-making classes - like any other
adult education classes, I suppose - are not only for the sake of getting to
grips with the subject matter; they are also a form of escapism, in that one
goes out for the
Continuing from starting and finishing
As far as I am concerned we all make lace for the love of it. I consider a
piece of lace to be good if it looks good and is made so that it is suitable
for its purpose. If carefully done the odd fudge/wangle will not show - so why
worry. This is why I love
Sorry folks, one more clarification of the pattern raffle/drawing. What is
on offer is two separate pattern sheets only, not a booklet (that is what I
bought for me which is what gave me the duplicate patterns). So whoevers
names, and there will be two, are drawn out in about 10 days time
Alex,
I agree too, it's very unprofessional as a teacher not to offer all of
your knowledge. If you have bright students who are interested in the
subject there are bound to be times when they ask something you don't
know. Providing you either make every effort to find out, or encourage
Maureen, our teacher, calls that fudging the result!!

You may remember a while back that I asked for help in starting a square, my
first project on my own without a book or a teacher? I am now pleased to know
that what I have done so far (almost finished) has been fudged and wangled

When I first started trying to begin projects on my own I kept forgetting to
take out the temporary pins, but once you have seen the slightly untidy
results of that a couple of times it reminds you to take them out next time
around.
Also during my first couple of years I was often reluctant to
The conventional wisdom about leaves and tallies is that you need to
make 1,000 of them before you can do them consistently and without fear
and trembling. That seems like an awful lot, but if you pick a project
(such as a handkerchief edging) that has a good amount of
leaves/tallies, by the

Daphne,
I made a mobile phone cover and taught it as a class at the 2007 Great Lakes
Lace Guild workshop. It is a matter of making a pouch out of felt that
works with your mobile phone. Then tat a strip(looks like a bookmark) that
will then be applied to the full length. What I did was make

Clay, I couldn't agree with you more!!I had a lady from another state in
Australia ask me to teach her Bucks - and she was very surprised when I readily
agreed.
Her teacher in the other state had refused to teach her Bucks because you're
trying to run before you can walk. So I asked how
I wanted to say how much I have enjoyed the current issue of the OIDFA
Bulletin. The articles are all very interesting. There is much on
the upcoming congress in Japan, and interesting patterns.

Wangling...FudgingCall it whatever you want to, but sometimes it's the most
feasible solution to a mixup. I did it recently on a piece of Binche that used
very fine threads. One pair went astray, and to go back to find it with that
thread would have resulted in broken threads. I added a

I use plain-headed pins as my basic ones, and a coloured-headed ones

Some of us are still on 650w! (and I think the majority in the family
