Hello All! Egad, you would think with all these questions that I had never taken a class or consulted more than one text! I do believe I've found every sticking point. Is there a rationale for starting on the right side or left side when beginning at a point? To help decide, should I count the pins before starting, thereby starting on the side with more pins? I'm working on #2 Ribbed Flower in the Lace Guild UK booklet & had to add a pin hole in two different spots to make it all work out on the first set of leaves. Not what the designer had in mind, I'm sure! Now that I'm on leaf #3 at the stem I've got the same issue. So--if there's an uneven number of pins between two sides of a shape (in this case the leaf), should I make the 1st pin (after the point) on the longer side? The ribbed flower is a cute little shape that I've enlarged so I can see what I'm doing (!!) plus work in color. Which brings up the question, how do I change colors from my green ribbed (ten s! tick) stem to a flower color for the ribbed floral section? Can I simply add & throw out in the same row in ten stick? Oh dear, I'm well above my pay grade yet again, but I'd love to have a red flower! If anyone can help, I'd appreciate suggestions.
