I like thesee, too, Robin. Right now I am making one of her trimmed 'bracelets' then I make and adaptation of a little 3-d tatted angel that is in Rebecca Jones' book and hang it in the middle, halo and all. Just a bit different and quite cute. BarbE ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: lace@arachne.com Sent: Sunday, October 23, 2005 12:49 PM Subject: Re: [lace] Christmas Ornament
I'm fond of Christine Springett's ornament patterns. I like ornaments that "stand out" and hold up straight, rather than just lace on a hanger, so I like to make the kind that sit in bangle bracelets. I also like a series she did of French fans around square or round metal "things"--don't know what they were originally for, but they're like giant-size charms, stamped out of gold-color metal. She has a book of just bangle ornaments, and there are patterns in her books, "Lace for Children of All Ages" and the Christmas book. And she made a series of kits that are nice. After the breakup of their business, I'm not sure who's handling the kits any more. The Fountains? Roseground? someone else? Robin P.
