Nose to the Ground Stone 2


Another Friday night progress report on my beginning Torchon bobbin lace lessons.  This is lesson 2, take 2, where we added more colors and observed how they traveled.  I did it!  I finished within 7 days.

Ready to prep lesson three -- a diamond strip with spiders.  But I won't get farther than the pricking until after the Independence Day holiday (in the US).

Color me happy, in lavender, variegated pinks and green!

Looks terrific!

You're making excellent progress.

I just realized that in my mind I say the word “Torchon” like this : Torture-on!!! No wonder I get shingles when I think of that kind of lace-making! You are full of valour, my good tatting friend!

Fox, your comment about shingles really took me by surprise...do you remember how fast you picked up tatting?!?

I am firmly of the belief that if someone handed you a beginner bobbin lace kit you would be blazing trails faster than a speeding bullet!

But thank you, and Crazy Mom too, for your kind comments. *blush*
