Hello All, I want to make my contribution on this subject. Apart from a few pillows with different laces on them (one of them a design from a Japanese lace group) I want to tell you that I am busy trying to finish a travel pillow, which is a bag at the same. Not at all similar to the one Robin

Barbara, your Binche Campanula is coming along very well. It is a lovely piece when complete. As for me, I recently finished the Campanula before returning home from Japan, just in time to give to my mom for Christmas. (she is a VERY special person in my life.) I have a Binche corner

I've certainly taken leave of my senses, and started on my first Binche piece (other than little samples), Campanula, designed by Kumiko Nakazaki, from her Collection 1. It has become an addiction--I don't want to do anything else, except maybe sleep and eat! Here's a scan of my currrent

I'm halfway through Jumbo's Pride, by Anny Noben-Slegers (part of Pride of Africa, I think). Got it from Anny at teachers' night at IOLI in Denver, because it shows elephants which my mother collects. I'm hoping to finish it to enter in the biennial Albuquerque Fiber Arts Fiesta in May, but

Hi All I would love to be able to say all 4 of my pillows have lace on them, but it would be a definite fib!! The 12 inch round has a tiny piece of miniature lace on, just plain cloth stitch, so I can practice corners! My 'all singing' pillow has nothing on it because it needs covering

Well I'm one of the lace knitters, but sigh there has been precious little knitting in my world. I've done something mysterious to my elbow (still waiting on test results to know which specialist I go see next), and knitting is downright painful for anything longer than a row or two. Quite a

I'm glad this thread was started... It's fun to connect with other lacemakers by hearing what they're actually doing ... From what others are saying, I will sound very dull and un-adventurous. I tend to work on one project at a time, and am not happy until that project is either finished or

Hi, everyone I've just started a new piece, a fine Torchon edging (Margaret Allen's torchon edging no 7) in ecru Finca 80 cotton (thanks for the thread, Jenny!) - it's a complete change from the thick linen thread and beds/cluny of Les Lauriers; the thin thread felt very strange to work with
