Dear all, Lier lace, (indeed Lier is a town near Antwerp in Belgium ) is a lace made by making chain stitches with a hook onto cotton tulle stretched strongly on a frame.Therefore a wooden frame is traditionnally used. The same method is used for Art Beading, used for the Haute couture in Paris.
The frame solution with pipes is perfect for travelling. (the only inconvenience is that the tulle cannot be stretched as strongly as on a wooden frame). So welcome to my Lier Lace Class at IOILI convention this year. As I did understand there are some open places for the one day Art beading Class. You can find more information on my (old) website: www.lierlace.com I urgently need to put more photos on it but: As for now I am working on the preparation of the next year World Congress in Belgium/Bruges. So the Dutch version is already completed, the English version will follow in a few weeks. Subscription is possible as from 1.6.2017 on. It is going to be a major event with lots of exhibitions in Bruges and all over Belgium. A once in a lifetime LACE-expierience... www.worldlacecongressbrugge2018.be welcome!
