After a short (???) break.... I'm back!

Can it really be over a year since my last post? Where has that time gone? So anyway, here I am a year older and wiser (I'm not so sure about that!) with a few updates on what has been happening over the year.

I continued with Lacemaking, Crochet, Mixed Media and Spinning in my spare time when not working.

I took a brief break from Lacemaking in September and shall be re-joining the class in February. Here are some photos of my progress so far:-

This piece I am currently working on will be an edging for a handkerchief. At the moment I am tackling turning corners. I have arrived at the end of this left side and will now need assistance in turning the corner. I will have to wait until I return to class in February.
