With her permission, I have uploaded Joeanna's miniature lace pillow
photos to Flickr for you all the see. The dimensions are one and a half
inch by one and a half inch. The bobbins are 9/16â without spangle and
3/4 â with the spangle. It was a fun project but my eyes were a little
better back

Be aware that s couple of the photos on the front cover of Roz's book don't
