Hi Linda
There are a number of big fan patterns around, or you could enlarge a
smaller one, though coarse lace doesn't usually look good on a fan.
The main thing is that you *MUST* be sure that the lace will fit your
sticks before you start making it. It's not only the diameter of the
inner
Lynda, I have designed some big fan lace patterns, wide of the lace: up
to 17 cm. ( as example, scroll to the bottom of my page:

Hi All-
Louise Colgan also has a wonderful book with lace fan patterns. In color and
different bobbin lace styles (in Torchon , Beds, Bucks and Russian).
It is called bobbin lace fans.
Hope this helps!!

My daughter bought me the Anne Collier one way back, but no one pattern
