[lace] Flanders question
Solved! Many thanks to all who wrote with help & suggestions regarding the Pale Blue Square In Flanderische Spitze. It turns out that in spite of all my pinhole counting, I failed to notice that the pinhole arrangement on the pricking did not match the arrangement on the diagram. Luckily, that fact did not escape the sharp eyes of a very experienced & helpful Arachnean! So—if you own this book, now is the moment to make a “note to self” that modifications will be needed when you work the corners on this pattern. It’s a cute piece so I’m glad a solution is available for future efforts. Hope this helps others who want to try Flanders. It’s a very nice book with pretty designs.

[lace] Flanders question
Hello All! I am trying to resolve an issue while working Pale Blue Square in Flanderische Spitze by Barbara Corbet. Has anyone successfully worked this pattern? It’s cute as a button but I am off by two pins on the picot side & I have been unable to find my mistake, even after numbering the pinholes on the diagram. Before I cut if off, it would be helpful to know if it’s me (highly likely) or an anomaly in the pattern (highly unlikely, but possible). Many thanks for any suggestions.

[lace] Flanders Question
Gidday all, Has anyone made the piece called Circular Mat With Peas In The Round, on page 33/34 of Inge Theuerkauf's Tierisch Flandrisch ? If so can you tell me which method you used to join the end to the start ? I'm thinking of doing this piece, and looking at the photo and the working diagram it looks to me like the start join have been done using the normal Torchon type method rather than the more European overlapping sewing with a needle way. I would like to do it using the overlapping way but am wondering if it would work successfully ?

Re: [lace] Flanders Question
I don't know that I've made this exact Flanders pattern, but I've used the overlap method of joining several Flanders pieces and have been please with those results every time. Much neater than a Torchon join--nearly invisible.
