Well, the lace is unpicked and restarted and now I have lots of bobbins on the pillow and don't seem to be going very far.

Mind you, I am really glad I re-read the Technique of Bruges Flower Lace (Sorenson) before I restarted. Apart from one glitch I think I have got the hang of working the fillings whilst doing the main trail.

By the way, if you are wondering what the green thing (the horseshoe) is in the picture well it is from Kleinhout.  I got mine at the NEC last year when I attended the National Lacemakers Fair

The horseshoe removes the need to cover everything with acetate and it really does keep the threads off the pins.
