I had the wonderful experience of taking a class in Hinojosa Lace from Marina Regueiro at Ithaca Lace Days this past weekend. Not only was she a good teacher, but she was also a wonderful storyteller. It makes the lace come alive when you know its stories and history.
It occurred to me that I'm actually not all that good at making lace. I tend to dabble...do a small piece of this type and another piece of that type. I really don't have a mastery of any one type. I very much enjoyed the class and I like making tape laces...portable and the smaller number of bobbins are easier to manage. I have decided to spend the next year learning Hinojosa, working with it, concentrating on only this type so I can say that there is at least one type of lace that I'm good at. No more dabbling...at least for the time being.
