Lace update

1st strip sample completed,

A couple of mistakes, more from being out of practise than anything

Just a little explanation, today's photos were taken through the window of record shop down an alley way in the city centre. My original plan was to post a photo of the alley but these caught my eye instead.

I will probably go back and play around with the alleyway at some point in the future but for now it looks a little like this.

couldn't make up my mind about these, I think it's the mix of bands on the labels/covers that attracted me.

I'm having fun :-)

I'm really enjoying the photo a day challenge although it may be boring some of you by now. It's making me think of subjects and unusual angles, meaning that I am using my brain for something other than my day job!!

The first lace sample is almost complete, I'm pondering on what sort of book to keep it in. This really is just for my own reference and I'm torn between having a book just for lace or having one where I can note down all fibre/fabric adventures through the year.

I could just do the whole thing digitally but part of me wants to go back to the proper sample/notebook that I kept whilst at college, coffee stains and all!! It would be lace, hand spun, knitting etc so would be quite large ...........maybe back to the drawing board....again

In the meantime, I'm off to practise this.... will be back soon with the lace update :-)
