Mom surprised me with two bobbin lace books that she picked up at a library sale for .50! I got Pamela Nottingham's Bobbin Lace Making and Bobbin Lace: Form by the Twisting of Cords by Kaethe Kliot! Both are excellent!
I also spent some time learning how to make a lucet braid today. Very fun and easy! It could get very addicting. I think I may pick up another lucet though. The one I bought is great and serves its purpose, but is a little bulky. I think I would like something a little slimmer.
I signed up for the summer tatting exchange and now I have to figure out what to send. So many patterns to choose from and so little time! I received some beautiful hand dyed thread from Yarnplayer (Marilee) that I'd like to use. Just need to find a pattern worthy of it!
That was my fun for today :) - back to work tomorrow. :(
