Nice job Lenore. I took a needle lace class at convention last year and have enjoyed what I have done, although I am working in DMC 8 and 12. I haven't progressed to finer thread yet. Believe it or not, I am teaching a needle lace class to my lace guild next week. Passing on my scant knowledge. I also like to shop at Overstock for craft things so I will be checking that out.

I'm just a beginner with needle lace, but I'm having fun! Here's a link to my blog with the last completed leaf in Blendables 30wt Lime Sherbet. I have another leaf that is almost done. http://tatt3r-lace.blogspot.com/2010/03/green-leaf-is-finished.html I found a set of 10 colors of Blendables 30wt on Overstock.com and splurged with my birthday money. I have not yet tried it for tatting, it behaves like pearl cotton, and I'd rather tat with Cebelia.
