Doing a couple of things yesterday/today -- first, trying to
create templates from E Z Quilting (brand) Template Plastic.
I tried before by using a bobbin lace pricker (tool),
then used hole punch. It distorted the plastic.
This time, I used a marker on the plastic,
cleaned off my hole punch tool - and had better (not perfect) results.
Good for practice pieces. I'm learning how to keep the Oya 'flat'. Similar to issues I've had with tatting - I want to avoid cupping of the projects. (not familiar with cupping? visit Muskann's blog post https://tipsaroundthehome.blogspot.com/2021/12/cupping-hearts.html. Going around the template is new to me! Stay tuned.

I'm so used to using perle cottons & size 20 Lizbeth - using the finer fiber is new to me. (the other pieces in progress & finished Joan Brash's Teneriffe Kits.).
Air quality is better today (Canadian Wildfire smoke in the area), taking a break for a bicycle ride!
