I have been working on Stage 1 of my Teaching Proficiency in torchon lace.
This week, I learned that I have passed :)
Here is a sneak peek at 2 of the projects in that folio.
This Thai Silk scarf was made with almost 200 bobbins. The pattern has been adapted from an oval doily centre.
Here is a close up of the pattern. I have not yet taken a pic of the finished scarf, but I will.
A couple of years ago, I participated in a secret pal exchange. This Oliver Twist thread and hankie fabric were part of my parcels. I played with Lace RX-P to come up with the design, then found that it had been published in Robin Lewis' 101 Torchon patterns.
And the pattern close up...
I really enjoyed these projects, and look forward to the next chapter :)
Have lots more to post, but need to take some pics and get organised!!
Hmmmmmm......I will get there!!
Meanwhile...thanks for dropping by. See you soon :)

Congratulations! You have some beautiful work here.
That sounds so complicated, but the results are gorgeous!
Laura, your pieces are amazingly beautiful! Maybe I need to take a trip to visit you so that I can learn to make beautiful bobbin lace. : )
Hi Gina, thank you for your kind words.
Thank you Suztats, not really so complicated, just have to work one bit at a time and keep your wits about you.
