If you go here... http://celticdreamweave.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html you can see my Louise Colgan Butterfly that I made from her Milanese DVD. The DVD makes a wonderful teacher. Everything is very well explained step by step on the DVD. I think you should be able to get it from Holly Van Sciver or the Lacemaker. I don't remember it being very expensive either. I have also made the Milanese Heart that is also a pattern of Louise. NOw if I could just get her Milanese Angel pattern that would be so great. Does she have any new Lace Milanese books out that I don't know about. I love Milanese for all of its braids. I am really excited...I will be going and staying in Ithaca, New York during Columbus Weekend and I will be taking a wire bobbin lace jewelry class being taught by Josee' Poupart. It should be fun and right up to something I will enjoy doing. I have two dozen alumium bobbins my husband made for me at his job he doesn't have anymore for me to use with wire. I will try them out finally and see how they are. They should make beautiful happy tinkling music as I lace.

Has anyone seen a pattern in a book that they can refer me to - preferably one that's still in print, so I can buy the book. Preference would be for Milanese, Torchon etc. (Definitely not Honiton). Your suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks Jill in London, UK, where the sun is shining and fluffy clouds in the sky. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
