Hello All! Best laid plans are gone awry again. My new (to me) pillow &
bobbins seemed like good candidates for a library demo. It's cute as a bugs
ear & I've posted a pic to Flickr. So with spangles in order, gingham on the
roller & stretchy gold ribbon ready to manage the bobbins for traveling, you
might think that I'd be set to make lace. Au contraire! My plan for making
Skansk hit a major snag when I realized all of my patterns require more than
six pair. A quick Google brought up Jean Leader's articles, Lorelei's test
strips & Jo Edkin's ribbons. With such a tiny pillow, I'm reluctant to add my
beaded Mechlin bobbins to the mix, but six pair lace options are less
appealing. The pillow needs something cute & petite! Have I missed any
attractive six pair resources that may be worked freehand? If I add pairs, the
Skansk pattern "beans" requires 11 pair. How do I understand the pros & cons?
Suggestions? Regarding my recent Power Point quandary, many thanks to !
all who wrote with help & suggestions. Apparently my computer & I are older
than I thought--my trial version of PP (MS Office 2007) expired in 2009!
Hoping for a reply from IOLI shortly. Sincerely, Susan Hottle, on vacation
with lots of pillows, bobbins & threads but too few books!
