rectangle out of a pricking for a corner (using CorelDraw 10). It will
have a fabric inset in the center. It has both a wavy footside and
headside.
You say that you have turned the pricking into a mat.

the emblem for Poole Bobbin Lace Circle is a dolphin on top of a Bucks
Thumper bobbin. The signigicance of the dolphin in this case is that it's
the emblem of the town of Poole, where we have the Dophin Shopping Centre,

One table is set aside for newbies who all start on a similar pattern.
The rest of us work at our own

Hi everyone and Marcie

just this afternoon I saw a display of lacy garters in a lingerie shop, and
one of them was so unusual that I want to tell you all about it.
Instead of being gathered and frilled, it was a smooth strip, so I suppose
it fastened with a velcro spot, or some such. This strip was
