I might have enough fiber for one more heart.

Knotted Lace

 

 

Second Session -- closed loops, bows, center starts w/long looms and w/small loops .. and much more.  What looks (to me) complicated is explained step-by-step, easily by Kelli.   All the tips are helpful + the little pieces came out okay.

Needle Lace practice piece ....

 So, here is Sunrise/Moonrise Needle Lace start.   It is from the Night + Day Marathon June 2025.

  

 Moon Practice piece created with DMC Perle Coton 8, 3823.

The wave fiber I picked out is Oren Bayan Dantel, 50.  The sun, size 20, Lizbeth Col. 611.

 

practice, practice --

 Found some Parlak Oren Bayan Dantel (50) in my thread stash.   Practice pieces of Mediterranean Knotted Lace.    

Dk. Blue practice piece:  edge knots, loops, turning loops (dog ears), bridging loops & picots.   Not certain the small picots look quite right - will try again tomorrow.  On the larger loops - small picots, medium picots, graduated picots.

Lt. Blue piece:  knots & loops (Color 579) - lt blue edge. 

For these pieces, I put the knots a little further apart - not as close together as my initial class piece.

Carrickmacross Lace: Sunburst

After procrastinating -- I picked up a WIP

from the 

 Day and Night

Lace Marathon.    The videos / files are just

about to expire.   Pattern & instruction Theresa Kelly.

I orderd another kit to start a butterfly pattern I found in one of my books.   Never enough time to play.

With some good notes from the videos, I hope to get them completed.   Or just wing it.

The book recommended is link here.  S/H pretty expensive to USA.

dispays ....

 Putting together 'new' 8x10 portable displays of tatting, bobbin lace, +beginner pieces.  I try to use what I've finished -- colorful pieces I have on hand.

 Bobbin Lace bookmarks, snake, and candle mat (or photo frame).  

 Beginner pieces of bobbin lace and tatting.  

They fit in plastic notebook size sleeves.   Easy to lay on the table & not worry about interested people 'touching' the pieces.

I don't know if the same people visit lacemaking demonstrations - I figured I'd bring something different for the next demo.

These are the ones I used at the last demo (Farm at Prophetstown):

 

 Demo edges.

Shoal of Fish.  bobbin lace. pinned to the front of the lace pillow.

Tatting: Lace Samples

 More lace samples.

 I use a couple basic patterns -- (lower part of the photo - I just draw them out & see how they look).  And basic patterns from this book, from the Palmetto Tatters group.  Jennifer Wiliams has a nice patern, Ring of Tatters site -- on https://www.ringoftatters.org.uk/patterns/simple_butterfly.html.

 I was creating some tatted butterflys during a recent Demonstration.   I was attaching them to my pincushion while tatting.  (right side of the photo).   A good way to use of fiber bits on shuttles & once empty, can load them for the next motif/project.

A few more shuttles to empty.   Lace Samples for the Lafayette Lacemakers.
