Brenda, what a lovely lot of information, I did look in my lace fan book, but it didn't tell me nearly as much as this.

I thought I had heard about it shrinking once off the pins and taking that into account, so I will store all this information to help guide me through the process. What I think might be a good idea too, at some time before I make it, is to try working a small leaf piece and see if I like it before working a whole fan and being unsatisfied with it. Worth the extra work I think.
Anyway thank you for all this.

Hello Sue

If you can get the silk leaf off in one (or not too many) piece use it as the template for your lace leaf. If that's not possible you'll have to calculate the size by measuring the sticks.

Two concentric circles with centre at the pivot of the sticks.
