Dear Sr. Claire, Don't remember if you've been referred to it, but The Lace Guild in England has a special section on their web site for young lacemakers. It may be of interest to your apprentices: _www.laceguild.org_ (http://www.laceguild.org) Click on Young Lacemakers on the blue bar at the top. I just looked, and note that the designs there have not been changed for a long time. Yet, I do think that in your case, the designs and instructions will appeal to the girls you are teaching and will lead them to designing originals for themselves.

They are starting on Janice Blair's "Candle in a Ring" to make as ornaments for the Christmas tree in their classrooms. They may need help with the sewing and the tally, but no time like the present to learn, eh? This is after their second lesson. I'm proud of my girls! I'll try to take more pictures with their creations. They've asked me for a cross pattern to make as a present for their teachers, but I don't have one. Does anyone know where I can dowload one? I'll also need to buy a source of Torchon patterns for them, I think. (I've done mostly meters and meters of edgings, but they are more into motifs and mats.) What do you suggest I buy for them?
