Are you more likely to get people who are thinking it will be like a class at a craft store, where at the end, they take home a splashy big flower arrangement, rather than a tiny inch of border, or possibly, a small fish? -----
WHenever I go demonstrating, the hardest part is convincing adult women to try the try-it pillow. They are so convinced they can't do it that they refuse to try. That is why I emphasize how easy it is to get started. And given the number of pre-schoolers and young kids (under 10) that have successfully learned the stitches, I do believe it's easy to learn the basics. Granted, there's "room to grow", but you can make some pretty, delicate lace designs with just a few hours' instruction. Robin P.
