[lace]re: what am I doing?

2005-10-23 Thread Sue Martin
Clay asked what were we up to?  Well I do not post often but do try to keep up
with the postings.  At the moment I am making a rose motif in Chantilly lace
in a thread which is a pale blue/grey colour and is unboiled 3 ply silk 250
thickness (very, very fine).  I got the thread from Leif Christensen in
Denmark after consulting with you wonderful people and I am having a wonderful
if somewhat challenging time.  The instructions in the book are not in english
and I have been told I should have used the gimp double (this is 6 ply boiled
silk 120 thickness) but as I have already done quite a bit I think I will
finish as it is and make a better effort next time.  I must try and get on a
class with Lia Baumeister.
