Thank you all for the kind things you have said, I certainly feel rather proud of myself, although there were times when I it seemed I was going backwards more than I was going forwards.
Various people have asked questions and made comments so I thought I would put my response in one email rather than sending individual ones. I would have replied earlier but I was laid low by a bug of some kind over the weekend, but I'm much better now. For Lynn who asked where I got the pattern it was in 'Special occasions in lace' edited by Bridget Cook. For Lyn B, I do have Alex Stillwell's 'Geometric Point Lace', I made sure I got DH to give it to me for Christmas, although I had to order it myself and have it delivered to me at work. I was very good, I didn't look beyond the first couple of pages until I unwrapped it on Christmas Day! I also have Jean Leader's little Bucks Point book from the Lace Guild and am working the patterns in that at the moment. For Vicki, thanks for reminding me about Downton lace. I was given a copy of a book of Downton patterns years and years ago and have forgotten about it. I shall have to dig that out and have a look. And for those who would like to see a picture of my bunnies, I did take lots of photos as I went along. So if anyone could let me know what I should do to make a picture available to you I will give it a go.
