Mark.......This is about the end ;-). Talk about stretching the horizons. What a neat idea.
I wonder if this could be done starting at the top of the head. with the top layer of back hair and "lacing" all the way down and under like a snood.....I think I will have to pin down (or up) my GD this summer.;-) BarbE ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark, aka Tatman To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; Lace list Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2005 8:47 AM Subject: [lace] BLacing with hair Hi all, You don't need a pillow and bobbins to do bobbinlace LOL! I used a half stitch ground to weave the back of my niece's hair for prom this year. Kind of tiring on her part to lay there as we separated the strands, gelled them, and attached clothes pins to the ends to act as bobbins. You can see how I did it here: www.tat-man.net/bobbinlace/BLhair.jpg And here is the finished lacing on the bottom half of her head: www.tat-man.net/bobbinlace/BLhair2.jpg Then we did curls on the top crown of her head to finish it off. The only thing my wife didn't let me do is stick a pin in her head so I could finish the second half of a spider LOL!!!! Someday I will get to do that and more bobbinlacing of the hair. I can see doing two simple edges on either side of the head where a normal french braid would be and finish it off with a pony tail that has a lace stitch ground draped over ;) This is probably not a new idea, but thought I would share that. :) Mark, aka Tatman www.tat-man.net - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
