Hello Sof,
when I saw the topic above in the discussion I thought immediately on you and
your doll as you introduced it to me before the OIDFA congress in Caen. And
when we meet there I told you that I don't think the tour Eiffel is a doll, do
you remember ;-)))
But it's a big and lovely work.
This is my most challenging lace project so far.

I used 40/2 linen from Webs http://www.yarn.com/ It's more of a weaving
yarn than for lace, but it worked. I wove a piece of cloth with it for
another runner that I made the lace edge from the same linen.

This is quite beautiful Vila.
While on Flickr, I took the opportunity to look at your other photos of
your lace and weaving too. It is all quite inspiring.

Mine would have to be the large edging in Toender which I made a few

Hi All,
I find Torchon a suitable area to focus on with a little Bucks but have a
collection of Eevaa-Liisa's pictures and edgings.

I might add that greatness is not measured in size alone. There are lots of

The biggest piece I have done as in the most bobbins is still under wraps at
