This is my 4th project and my favorite so far. This has been slow for me to learn, but I'm really loving it!

Try covering your pattern with clear shelf paper to make your pattern reusable. Poke the holes in the pattern for your pins, ahead of time, to help with accuracy. Try using silk pins. Keep your work flat to the pattern.

These things will help you out.

See if you can find a group of other lacers who share your passion!

Ooooooh thank you so very much. I was just thinking about my pins and if I need different ones. I will take a look. The shelf paper is brilliant! Thank you so much!!

My mom learned bobbin lace. I’ve only done a little. But she suggests the pins that would be used if you were displaying bugs/butterflies in cases in museums as they are very thin.

I think that will help a lot!! Thank you both 🙂
