Do I call it Needlerun/Limerick or just Embroidered Net? 2 Replies

Please have a look at my wedding veil album. I called that lace needlerun because that's pretty much what I did - run the needle through the meshes until I had created the design I wanted. I have…Continue

Comment by Lorelei Halley Administrator on March 6, 2019 at 2:43pm: Some photos from this batch were posted on facebook today. I post the link here because there are several examples of embroidered net. We see far too little of that.

Comment by Elizabeth Ligeti on March 31, 2018 at 8:26pm: A very pretty mat, but Gosh! that edge must have taken hours to do!!.

I know this as Limerick Lace - and was the first needle lace I made - my daughter's wedding veil!! (Nothing like jumping into the deep end -- and floundering!!) . I have also made a small fan leaf, but that is about all in this type of lace.

Comment by Lorelei Halley Administrator on March 19, 2018 at 4:34pm: While this photo shows a woman making bead embroidery, it is also a working setup that might work for tambour embroidery. I post it with that in mind.

Comment by Maria del Valle on September 24, 2016 at 2:02pm: Hello friends
I'm sorry but I removed part of my job on tulle ( with my own photos of my embroidery) on this site because the designer Noelia Morillo from the Facebook group: "Bordando tul, tutoriales con Noelia Morillo" doesn't like this.

Comment by Maria del Valle on August 11, 2016 at 3:02am: Thank you so much Lorelei:
I'll showing you my project and tests, I mean my works in progress, of course! and I think like you, that it could inspire others.
