I have a feeling there are a couple of Mid Downs Lacemakers on the list... or others that have done their tablecloth as a group project. Having bought the books, we are planning to make a start later this year (when we've got a bit further with our "Movement" project), and to work the cloth in ecru cotton (Madeira Tanne 30 if possible - otherwise, has anyone tried the new Coats Cotton 30 - reports back from the class are that it is not good for sewing, but that won't necessarily be the same for bobbin lace). Obviously, it would make sense to buy all of the thread in one go if possible, to avoid different dye batch problems. If anyone has worked the cloth, or squares from it, can you remember how much thread it took?
