I must say that I have never really had much desire to work needlelace, but
looking at the pictures on the site below has kindled some desire to
reproduce some of the wonderful pieces shown here.
Beautiful work everyone, well done to all and thanks for sharing.

As promised, I am reporting back from our needle lace class yesterday.
Personnally, I only got as far as couching down the outline thread for a
five-petalled flower.
As a result of the position I was working in, I developed a thumping
headache (quite common as
a result of a childhood accident), which still has not subsided yet.
Most of the group were beginners, only a few had done needle lace before.
One is actually a member of the UK Guild of Needle Lacers:
http://guildofneedlelaces.org
and has a wonderful domed wooden box which she bought from them a few
years ago,
the top is used as a pillow as described by several Arachne members.
However, the top is hinged and tilts backward to reveal a nice storage box.
