Thank you all for your comments and suggestions, I can't wait to get home and try out Gil Dye's suggestion. Having never had a lace teacher I sometimes get stuck but I always find I get an answer from someone on Arachne.

Having found one that I liked I decided to make it again and add some beads. I put these on using a crochet hook and drawing one thread of a pair through the bead and threading the other bobbin through the loop as in a sewing. Of course, when I took the lace off the pillow the beads were now on the 'wrong' side of the lace. I have been wondering, is there a way to put beads on a piece of lace so that they end up on the 'right' side of the lace without sewing them on afterwards?
