What If? lace experiment continues

This post was to be published around the time of my accident but got forgotten about. Some time ago I blogged about using this thread with my embellisher.

I then decided to use it for my lace-mmm, different. I hope to finish this as soon as I am able as I am intrigued as to how it will feel.

Hi Sue
Is that sari yarn that you're using? The colours are really lovely, they look wonderful on the lace bobbins.

Absolutely fabulous, I love it ! Used to do bobbin lace with my grandma when I was a child, but she used plain white thread, not this fabulous one !
