Hello lacers,
Next week is our first meeting of the year. We
will be starting out with two Valentine's Day projects for you to choose
from. A bobbin lace heart and a tatted heart (this is also the start
to a lovely winter tree if you're not into hearts).
For the
bobbin lace you will need 8 pairs. Either in in one color of your
choice or 7 pairs in in one color with one pair in a metallic/alt color
for the edge. Thread is Size 80 cordonnet or equivalent.
For the
tatted heart you will need thread sizes of your choice and 3 shuttles.
If you've never used more than 2 shuttles this is a super easy pattern
to lean on.
**** Convention Info****
Please bring all pincushions you may have in ANY
state they are in. We really need to see what we have. If you have
any of the miser bags bring those too. We think we have enough of those
at this point, but please do bring them if you have them done. We are
also in need of more 60's; So please consider making one - anything will
help.
If you don't get the Bulletin from IOLI please know
that Winter 2013 has gone out with all the convention info. Feb 1 is
the "start" of registration. If you want to go, but are not an IOLI
member know that the forms are available from Beehive Lacers site.
See you next week!
Robin
