On the agenda this week is Guzzisue ice skating!! main problem is that I don't know how but I'm sure we can overcome that one hahaha. If my posts suddenly stop you know that my attempts were unsuccessful and I'm nursing a broken something.
The Ice skating proves that Christmas grows closer, the open air rink is up and running, the German Market is buzzing and I get to have time off work next week to catch up with the dreaded housework etc.
In the meantime I am still embroidering the felted surface and making some slow progress on the lace.The brass coloured "beads" are actually the heads of the pins pushed down into the pillow. I hope any serious lace makers following this experiment aren't too horrified by the way I am misusing traditional techniques. I love making traditional lace as well.

I do hope you enjoy the experience if ice skating. It's great to be able to do that and enjoy the Christmas markets.
I was thinking how fabulous that lace would look if it was big-you know, installation sized....
Good luck on the ice skating. I've only been twice and was so bruised up I could hardly walk afterwards. But I'm sure you'll be much more coordinated!
I was wondering what size thread you were using but decided it is quite fine if those are brass pinheads. i like it and ony wish my lace skills were up to experimental.
better wear your helmet! maybe a padded pair of pants wouldn't hurt either ...
not to worry about offending me in the lace making department...I haven't a clue.... carry on experimenting....
Oh My! I just love what you are doing with that lace. Keep up the experiments, who knows where they will take you.
Threadspider- I've been thinking about working big, its on the list for when I get chance to work out the logistics of doing it :-)
As for the Ice skating - will report back tomorrow.
