Flying Mosque - completed

"Nice work!!! It's impressive what this people do at any place. I'we seen the Amsterdam project and the Korean one. Are them all they've made? We found them while preparing our project for the Girona Temps de Flors /(FLOWERS FESTIVAL)…"

"Which part is yours? Is it the smallish section to the right of the woman? What an interesting idea to have these extra-large-scale lace shapes."

40's Ruffled Doily

"I have never tried to make a crocheted piece with a ruffled edge, although I have seen many patterns for that type. How on earth do you block it when finished, to make the ruffles look good?"

Was this several different green threads or 1 thread that was a mixture? I'm new to the site so sorry if my questions seem silly :) i'm going to check out this NE lace group too,sounds interesting. ~Erika

I'm thrilled to learn that there is a New England lace group! I will check the distance to Sturbridge, but really, no matter how far it is (!) I will try to make at least a few meetings! But maybe not this academic year....my husband and I are leaving on an extended sailing journey and will be away from Sept until May. I'm taking lots of knitting on board with me, but I've been 'on the fence' about bringing any of my bobbin lace projects.

Hopefully I'll be home and settled again in time for your last meeting of the year in June. I hope so!
