Hi Jeanette, I think no one has answered because no one has seen a Flanders fan pattern. I looked through my books. The traditional patterns were all straight edgings. The modern patterns showed a few narrow curved patterns and a few oval motifs. However, nothing was close to the type of pattern needed for a fan.
This may shock a few purists, but I suggest looking at Bucks Point fan patterns. If you find one you like, work it in Flanders style stitches and techniques instead of Bucks. The other option is to learn Flanders well enough to design patterns, then design your own fan.

Has anybody ever seen a fan in Flanders lace?
