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!
ReplyDeleteYou'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!
ReplyDeleteFox ; ))
Fox, your comment about shingles really took me by surprise...do you remember how fast you picked up tatting?!?
ReplyDeleteI 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*
