>>>From: Tamara P. Duvall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Since I make all my lace wrong side up (even the Russian which is traditionally worked right side up), that includes tallies -- both the "plain" raised ("leaf overlay", as I tend to think of them) and the raised and rolled ones. <<<
I would think tallies underneath would distort the half-stitch section over them. Instead of working flat on the pricking, there's a lump that the threads have to stretch over when running from pin to pin. Doesn't this show up as loose threads or mis-shapen shape when you take the lace off the pillow? Robin P.
