Spring


(We are grateful.  The storms in our area were south of us & we have no damage.)

Had this out at the public library & didn't get much weaving accomplished.   Did not find any mistakes tho ...

This is an incredible book.  82 pages - and spiral edge.  Clear diagrams & lovely projects.  Charming cover!


 I have had our 16mo old granddaughter here q o week.   Wow.   Never a dull moment! Lots of closed doors, putting things higher up!  Overtired once she is back home.   She will be back here on the 23rd.  Not much tatting to report.    Did manage one angel wing -- and will launch the 2nd wing!   One day I will have a completed angel.

IMO - you need to have on hand:  scissors, tape measure/ruler, scotch tape.   I like to have (nearby) pin cushion, needle threader, stiletto, post-it note, & longer needle.

Misc.

My friend gave me these two vintage Weave-It looms.
I enjoy looms / yarns.

I have a bag in the works - which I forgot about until I was gifted the two looms.   Had a hunt, and it was in a project bag.
 Made with a zoom loom.   Tolt Folded Bag pattern.  I need to add a handle.  I've had this WIP for awhile!


Part of a blog post 3/27/2022:
This project, I found in a box.   I won a Zoom Loom and 3 balls of yarn.   Made the squares, and somehow put it away - never put it together.   I think, not sure, that it was a giveaway thru Facebook.  Schacht Spindle Co & Classic Elite Yarns.   My plan was to sew the strips together and fold them into a Tolt Folded Bag.   So I hope to get the 3rd row of squares put together & now that I found the ball of yarn, can sew the 3 rows together.   Fingers crossed this works.


----------------------------------------------
 I found this in my "travel bag".  Met up with friends and put in some of the weaving.  Spinning Star.   A very nice kit - and I switched the kit fiber with Lizbeth fiber.  An excellent to go kit.

The kit has fiber; however, I'm using Lizbeth, Size 20, Col. 159 -- the kit comes with white fiber to complete four patterns.  When the colors in the fiber changes it creates a striped look.  Maybe would be better with a solid color after all.

The pastel colors in the spokes and knots are ok -- maybe I should have changed to a solid color for the needle weaving.

Needle Lace Sunflower

I've picked up this project a few times.
Have made some practice pieces.
Started out with size 20 fibers 
& really didn't care for the outcome.

Picked out some size 40 fibers and
giving it another go.

 Practice pieces.

 Started with the sunflower center. 

So not perfect; however, I like the way it spirals.   
Lizbeth size 40 - Col. 697.

Now on to the petals.

Off the Loom ...


EDITED ... 2:32 p.m.
 

Teneriffe Lace Sunflower (kit) c.2020 Heirloom Arts
Kit and Instruction:  Joan Brash

Kit included EVERYTHNG. (Excellent) Instructions, Teneriffe Loom,
DMC Coton Perle 8, Col. 972, Lizbeth, Twirlz, Monarch, Czech beads,
Needles, Filament for beading.   Joan's kits are wonderful.  When I visit her site, I want to purchase all of them.





 pretty with the beads ...

There are so many lace sessions to choose from.
Check them out, here:   https://thelacemuseum.org/virtual-education/.    



------------------------------------------------------

In response to question, I did hope to put
sunflowers into a shadow box.   They sell them at Michael's (perhaps other places).

I have sunflowers completed, I have partial sunflowers, and instructions/patterns to launch.   

I want to do the Endruck's sunflower - another link here, finish my beaded lace bobbin with sunflower pattern,  needle lace sunflower, zwirnknopf button set, small grapevine wreath, and (floral) buttons.

I also have some tatted stars and needle lace stars in the works. And a bobbin lace star (design by Karen Thampson) on Alex Stillwell's Wordpress Site.  

I don't know what other artists do with their lace - I usually give most away.   Recently, though, I have had a 'theme' of sunflowers in different patterns that I'd like to arrange (somehow).

Summertime Sunflowers

EDITED

This was a zoom class
thru the Lace Museum, which I set aside,
and kind of forgot about - -


This teneriffe pattern / Kit uses beads and fibers.

 Do you see the beads?




In addition to the Teneriffe Sunflower,
I've started a Needle Lace Sunflower, too
thru the Lace Museum ... next zoom session/video on Tuesday.

Sunflowers are a GREAT theme
for the summer sessions via the Lace Museum virtual education.  I have a few patterns and kits ...

This was the first sunflower, of the summer, that I've completed:
 Class instruction and pattern by Kelli Slack.  Link:  Sunflowers at the Twisted Picot.   

I have a few sunflowers to create -- I have a Spangles kit, called "Sunflowers" - beaded lace bobbin.   
(photo from their web site Spangles)

Karen Smock has a class coming up, 
Sunflower on a small Grapevine wreath.  Earlier this year she had a lovely earring/necklace set, Zwirnknopf Sunflower Buttons - which I will enjoy making.   

Also, I came accross the Endruck's Happy Sunflowers, LINK HERE.   (tatting)    Should be fun.

I'm looking forward to see the new class offerings 
for Winter : )
