Please note the location will be the Sturbridge Federated Church (next to the Sturbridge Library). Attendees should enter by the double doors on the side of the church (on Maple Street). We will have access from 10:30 a.m., so please come early to visit with your lace making friends. Please register for this event so we know how many to expect.
After the program, please stay and make lace together. This is an opportunity to share our work in progress and to get help from others. Those who are new(er) to lacemaking and need some coaching or advice will be able to sit with a more experienced lace maker for assistance. Please note, this is not intended to be formal teaching, but a way to help less experienced lacemakers.
Program: "Make a holiday heart"
NELG member, Rosalie Bares, will provide a bobbin lace pattern and thread to make a simple holiday heart. If you have a favorite heart pattern, please feel free to work that. Additional details regarding supplies will be provided closer to the date.
NELG member, Joan Thomas, will provide instructions and tuition for making this 1" tatted holiday heart, which works up very fast!
Materials:
Please bring a tatting shuttle and Lizbeth 20 thread. Joan will provide the dagger bead.
