I have been following the lessons, and have some pictures on my blog. http://tatt3r-lace.blogspot.com
I tried the Side Stitch this weekend, but took it out last night. I think I started my first row with the stitches too close together, and toward the end my stitches were crowded. I needed to leave out stitches at the edge to follow the curve of the leaf, and that gave me trouble for some reason. I'll sit down tonight and see if I can conquer the Side Stitch. Your second diagram is much clearer, and I think that will help a little. I like making needle lace, it's very different from tatting or bobbin lace. I've done a lot of sewing, and it's relaxing to settle down with only a needle and thread. Thanks for posting these lessons, I would never have tried needle lace on my own.
