[lace] Christmas Bell Experiment

2010-11-10 Thread pene piip
Yesterday I finished a piece of lace which was partly an experiment 
using 'sequin off-cut' or what I would call "metal lace" which I 
inserted in the ovals at the bottom.

I also added some sequins to three of the side sections.

There is also a photo I took last week of a mangler that is a prop in a 
Linen Shop at a mall in Tartu.

Hi Pene

That's a super Christmas decoration.

Am I right in thinking that you completed the bobbin lace and then added the 
sequins and sequin waste using a needle and metallic thread?

Thanks for the complement, Brenda.
I didn't use a needle at all.
After I had made the lace trails - 2 trails on the top & one trail 
around the bottom - I used the gold passives to include the sequin waste 
& the sequins. It wasn't easy to join both sides together.


The pattern is from Anna magazine (Dec. 2005) and is one of a set of three.
