Brenda and Jo,
thank you for your emails, I think I ought to consider using a circular grid
might make the best job. Aurelia reminded me of Ann Colliers Fan book,
which is sitting in my bookcase so I better find time to read and see how
much I can learn and how much inspiration she can pass on. I want something
within my capabilities so the end result is something I will be happy with
even though I might do better in the future years. Perhaps I will get
chance to have another go :-) I think before I actually begin the fan I
will do some trial pieces so I choose something I can see working well
before I do this 180 deg fan. It does open right out Brenda.
In some books I have seen where they use trial bookmarks sewn together so
wondered if that was where the idea might come in, but I will be much
happier with the all in one circular shape.
Anyway thank you again for all your help.
Sue T, Dorset UK, cool but lovely and sunny
Are you planning to use a circular grid or a straight grid cut to a fan
leaf shape? The 180 degrees of the fan leaf shape has nothing to do with
working angles. A fan leaf is just part of a circular edging; it might be
a full semi circle of 180 degrees or it might be a bit less - 150 r 160
degrees.
