I think Sally is right -- the designer/creator used whatever techniques
pleased her, and it doesn't fit into a particular niche. Also I do now see
the needle lace filling stitches inside the loops made by the narrow braid.

Perhaps the designer/creator used various techniques, and the entire piece
does not fit any one designation

[lace] Lace ID (Susan H's question)

2017-07-14 Thread Sally Jenkins
In reference to Susan Hottle's question about a mat,
https://www.flickr.com/photos/lacemaker/35865707036/in/album-7215763195503607

There is another possibility. Perhaps the designer/creator used various
techniques, and the entire piece does not fit any one designation. I know a
woman who frequently finishes her Torchon bookmarks with macramé, for
instance, and they are beautiful and unique.

This is a very interesting and beautiful mat! Hats off to the creator!

[lace] Lace ID?

2017-07-14 Thread Susan
This morning I found braids, similar to the lace sample, on bestneedleart.com 
under braids, DMC.  Two widths of flat braid with straight edges--very plain.  
The bumpy "catepillar" braid is the one that we've all used in workshops.  Then 
there are the decorative braids, zig zag etc. used for more advanced projects.  
Now this.  Hmmm.  Susan Hottle USA

It looks to me like someone combined techniques.  There are a few filling
stitches and the picot bars for connecting. But it is primarily Irish Crochet
motifs.

 Hello All!  I just posted a scan of a lace mat that belongs to a friend in
Ohio.  If anyone has an opinion as to its origin, I would love to know.  The
undulating cord, picot bars & Irish crochet motifs are quite robust.  The
entire mat is approxiimately 12"x12".  Many thanks.  Sincerely, Susan Hottle
