I love your description of learning to make lace, Devon.
"If you like puzzles, you'll love bobbin lace. Have other textile
techniques
ceased to thrill? Is needlepoint boring? Like Sudoko in thread, bobbin
lace
is a challenge. Working with four threads simultaneously, you will find
out
why the laces of the previous centuries exceeded any other textile in
beauty
and complexity. Bring your thinking cap!"
For me it describes exactly the pleasure I get from working a new pattern.
Maybe the invitation should be a combination of the simplicity of the basic
stitches and the complexity of what you can do with those 2 stitches.
"Lace making is two easy stitches, combined in different ways, to create
beautiful and inspiring pieces. Come learn how simple and fun the basics
can
be and discover the joy in creativity, and the bliss in making a timeless
treasure!">>
<<With a few twists and crosses of specially wound bobbins you can
create beautiful lace that you can proudly hand down through the ages.
Learn the basics of this deceptively easy thread craft in just a few
minutes.>>
Devon
Best wishes to Alice in enticing a few more people to become dedicated
lacemakers.
