MAKING LACE

Here are a few pics of a lace piece I have put together from Karen Ruane's lace class.  Her classes are so much fun.  This one was taking pices of lace and putting them together to make your own lace piece and as Karen says you could not buy this.  She has a new class starting for 8 weeks in June just sitting and embroidering with her.  I have taken every class she has had except one for buttons which I will take someday.





 
 
The bottom section was just pinned when I shot the pics but last night I sat and sewed on the lace where pinned and then did more embellishing on the bottom section. When finally finihed I will take another pic.

That's really pretty. I've never heard of doing that. What a fun idea.

This is beautiful Freda! I missed Karen's lace class (doing EEC) but I've seen lots of wonderful pics of lace.

Lacilicious work of art. I am entranced with this technique. Happy Hearts are Creative Hearts...

If anyone could sew lace together it would be you. I'm not sure how you decide what to use from your vast assortment.

A beautiful piece. I have seen some of the buttons created in Karen's class and they are so lovely. I'm sure that you'll enjoy doing that one at some stage.
