Feeling Happy
Hearing Would you believe it's the England / Windies Test Match!
Is it really nearly a year since my last entry?
I've managed to crash my hard drive and reinstall my software and then I realised it was nearly a year since I lasted put an entry on the blogging.
So, finally I've had the large pillow out again last night now that we have a sofa to sit on and I can make the lace. I find that the pillow is too big to rest on the edge of a table (and anyway, we haven't got round to buying the table yet - sofa, TV cabinet and coffee table - yes, table and chairs - no.), so I have to prop my feet up on my work box, put a large cushion on my knees and then add the 24" pillow on the top of it.
I am, naturally, now in heaven.
So, back to the lace. I said that this came from a copy of Anna magazine from over 6 years ago - I actually think the magazine is more like 12 years back.
When I moved my things out of storage I came across a photo copy of another pattern from around the same time for a beautiful circle of lace which is over 18" in diameter - now I just need to work out what happened to the photograph - I know I can make things from the pricking but it might help if I had a slight idea of what I was doing!!
I will take some more photos and upload them - especially so I can mutter on about my bobbins which I adore.
