Yes that is the one I have and have actually followed and worked and isn't
bad, I have it on my website and gave it to my Mother. One part at a time
learning as I went, but it has a scroll in the middle of the pattern after
all the threads are already working in the piece.
What I need is a dvd or even a u tube bit of video showing me how to begin a
pattern with a scroll (I just cant make it work right, not matter how many
times I have tried) and I really want to master it. I have tried working
the C scroll in the Pat Read book and also the S scroll beginning and
although it was not absolutely dreadful it isn't something I would be proud
to show off.
Yes I know I am about to begin a bucks point pattern from Alex Stillwells
book, but I have some birthday pennies to spend and would be happy to invest
it if it would make the difference.

I believe that Louise Colgan has a DVD which actually features the
hummingbird pattern. You might check with your lace suppliers to see if
they have it in stock.

Does anyone know if there is a dvd of bobbin lace which clearly shows how
to work a start and an end of a piece in a scroll. I have the
hummingbird by Louise Colgan where the scroll is worked in the middle of
a piece and hace worked that one, but I have been unable to make an
acceptable job of a scroll start despite someones best efforts. Being
able to look at this being done bit by bit and try it I feel is my only
chance of 'getting it' and also being able to go back to it in the future
when I want to work something else which includes it. My brain doesn't
retain these instructions very well, especially when I begin with text.
Lots of my lace learning has been watching and learning and practising
and then understanding much better the text instructions.
It would need to be english speech, if there is one. I would be very
grateful to find out about it.
Many thanks
