Morning All
Just to put in my 2 pennorth.... I started to teach myself around 3
years ago, from a book. the first piece of lace I produced was
abysmal! But.... I was proud of it! I then joined a couple of Lace
Groups and found that one of them had a class. I started going, my
challenge is that I can't attend every week due to other commitments!
(I now take Agnes, to both the class and to lace get togethers, she
takes me to lace fairs, and the Christine Springett course in a months
time) However, 3 years later and I've done torchon, bucks (a little,
it's not my favourite lace) beds (Love it!), rosalibre and milanese.
I'm not saying I'm competent,but I can just about follow a pricking! I
can start myself off most times and finish ok, but do occasionally
need help. I still go to the class, as we have a good laugh, and if
you do get stuck there's someone there to help!
Apart from that, both Arachne and Lace have introduced me to lots of
new friends! Help and advice is always there when needed. Thanks
Group!!
P.s.s.s. how many leaves do I need to do to 'get good'? Still
practicing!!

Hello to One and All! 4 years on torchon! I teach an 8 week course
on torchon! Then we get together again and I show them other types
of bobbin lace. IF they feel ready to go onto something new. Or if
they feel they need some extra classes, or another variety of bobbin
lace, then we will do that. I know how to make 6 different varieties
of lace besides bobbin lace. So we continue on. I cant get over
that, 4 years! Ill also teach them how to design their own lace. Id
like to get the baby birds out of the nest. Hugs, Susie Rose
