Pattern:  Trails by
c.Karen H. Thompson, 2021

I used perle coton #8
Color 518.

This session was such a challenge.
I couldn't get the left side done correctly.
After our instructor walked me thru it, pin-by-pin,
there was an 'a ha' moment.   

Hope to finish it soon.   




And the 'future' class projects are so inspiring!
Yes, I just signed up for all of them ; )

Skill-Building 3


This is another session thru the Lace Museum, March 2021.
Rose ground, Gimp, & Spanish Fan Lace
Skill-Building 3 (Formerly Further Beyond the Basics)
pattern c. Karen h Thompson, 2021.

This was a challenge for me.  I found it difficult to get the sections 'right'.   I finally got the hang of it - The rose ground (the gold sections) seem easier to do now.   
I used perle coton #8 738, 600, 503, and 3687.   perle coton #5 color 3688.
There are a couple more patterns included with the session that I look forward to doing.

Since my next session (new pattern - Trails) is on Friday, 
I see I need to finish this on up!
