I guess with 2-D that also eliminates the use of Rosa Libre, not that I have tried to do that particular lace yet. When I heard the rules at convention I thought, well that is me out as I don't generally do yardage and could not see when I would ever use such a narrow runner on my table. Having read some of the previous emails now my brain is racing with ideas for what to make and how to use it afterwards. I wonder if that length would be enough to gather up into a wedding garter should my daughter ever decide to take that step? Maybe it would look nice just hanging on the wall like a bell pull. Or just plonk it on my head for a lapet!! <g> With my insomnia last night, everytime I tried to get back to sleep I had another idea of what to do. My favourite lace is Milanese but that is a lot of winding around to make something that size, maybe it is time to go back to the basics and have a go at some colorful torchon. It took me three attempts to finally come up with my Snow Queen design and I can see that I will have to put lots of thought into this one if I have anything respectable to show for my sleepless nights. I'm looking forward to seeing what other lacemakers come up with though. Janice
