Fellow Spiders,
I'm looking for sources for doll size fan sticks or a fan frame,
approximately 2.25 inches in length to be in scale with a 19 inch French

quite enjoyable.
Thanks,

designed by Jean Leader. I do have the all the patterns, but the picture of the
actual bookmark is not too clear. I want to make this bookmark using colored
threads. I thought it would help me to
Hi folks
I know some of you are much more advanced in lace making than I am -
make that most or even all of you :)
Anyway, I belive that stain glass patterns can be used as patterns for lace.
So, on the off chance that I have got this right,.. I found this
