Hi Spidees,
Coming out of lurksville for a few minutes. My first Brugge flower is well on it's way. It's the first flower on a mat (pattern from the Brugge Bloemwork video.) Wheeeee! I'm really excited. This will be my first large piece of lace. I'm taking it with me to demo lacemaking at the State Fair. My first demo, so I'm pretty nervous! I have to look like I know what I'm doing!!! LOL
Okaaaaaaaaay. I went to the quilt shop to pick up some fat quarters & I found a fabric that was deep blues with gold spider webs and weeny peeny orange spiders. It's quite pretty so I'm going to make heart pillows as a door prizes at the lace guild meeting. I'm keeping one for myself and will add a tatted edging. Anyway, if you have a quilt shop & want spidery fabric, they may have some.
Another shop had black fabric with spider webs done in multi-colored dots. Not pretty, but fun. I checked Hobby Lobby and JoAnn's, but all the fabrics with spider webs were see-through fabrics.
I have yet to see the gorgeous & now famous read with black webs that was used for the pin cushions you lucky Arachnes did with the added laces. Those were the first Arachne photo's I'd seen & I'm still impressed by the lace edgings.
Well, work to do then home to work on my mat, although that's not really "work".
Mary
