Self-Help Lacemaking Tutorials

12/15/2017

Bedfordshire Motif by Marjorie Beales

Lacemakers who wish to share their tips and pointers are very welcome.
Self-help classes start on Sunday 4th February at Linnwood Hall, from 1:00pm to 3:00pm.

Each self-help class covers one technique and is for lacemakers who would like to learn the lace from (mostly) books.

If you need help with a piece that is already on your pillow, or want to start a particular piece and need help, come along.

We have a photocopier which is available to students at Linnwood on the day.

The suggested starting patterns are Pattern 1a from Pam Robinson's book or Pattern 2 from Barbara Underwood's book.
