Now then do you hand sew or machine sew
your lace on to material.

I am trying to put together some material for an Introduction to/
Demonstration of Bobbin Lace for our club.
I seem to remember from arachne several years ago the statement that at one

Could anyone help please with

thinking of starting no 5 or 6.
