Andrea, I have just looked in my copy of that book and with 41 pairs in that edging I think that it is a real effort on your part to complete a yard and half in three weeks, well done I am sure she will like it, it's a very pretty pattern. Happy lacing Sue M Harvey Norfolk UK

I've managed to load pictures on to the Arachne webshots album if anyone is interested. I used Pipers spun silk, 140/3 which was a dream to work with (only broke one thread in the whole piece and that was in the picot edge bundle so was not a problem) and the lace has a nice soft drapy feel. Just hope the bride likes it and appreciates the hours of work. This seems to be the link to my album: http://community.webshots.com/myphotos?action=viewAllPhotos&albumID=55327388 1&security=iPvKNN (don't know how to do these tiny url's) or go to: http://community.webshots.com/user/arachne2003/2 and look for my folder (Andrea Lamble). Have to decide what to make now to fill the gap in my life! Mind you might have to get the duster and vacuum cleaner out of hibernation as DH returns from a month spent in the Czech Republic tomorrow.
