My star experiences have been in the 3-5 inch range, but I can imagine one a
bit bigger. I think you could take any star pattern you like and enlarge it
to the size you want. Adjust the size of thread to fit the new size, and
make it.
For the top of a tree, I can see various ways of mounting it. One is to
insert a string or ribbon through lace at the center back and tie it to the
tree top. Another is to make two stars and sew them together leaving the
bottom open. The third is to make a paper cone or cylinder and attach the
angel to it.
Any star you make should look lovely on your tree.

Good time for making lace.

I was wondering if anyone has made a large bobbin lace star that could be
used at the top of a Christmas tree - a star perhaps six inches across. If
you have tried this, does it look as good as you had hoped? And where did
you find a pattern?
Looking forward to your comments,
