Beautiful work my friend, just exquisite! It's very intricate, I bet it was difficult, but it's a big testament to your skills! Bobbin Lace is lovely and sweet it doesn't look easy from seeing others do it. Yay for girl-y hobbies I really enjoy spinning, silk weaving, and knitting. There's something so nice about working with one's hands. Bravo my friend! *congratulatory hugs!*

Thanks! ^_^
Ooh, and you actually know what it is I'm doing? Sweet! You'll have to show me silk-weaving sometime.

*hugs*
*needs to come visit again sometime!*

So very pretty! My great-grandmother did bobbin lace, but unfortunately, I never learned. I'm so glad to see this finished at last! It looks wonderful. ^_^

Thanks! &hearts
Well, I can show you if you ever want to try. I have LOTS of extra equipment.

singswithtrees November 15 2009, 06:39:52 UTC

I might just take you up on that when I come to visit. Granted, we'll see how well I do (or not), but I would love to try!

Sure! /enjoys showing people how to do things
/maybe just because it's nice to see someone be worse than her at something, but still. ^_^

Why be embarrassed? I think it looks lovely!

schmot_gurl November 16 2009, 02:10:05 UTC

Oh, I know it does. Doesn't make it any less embarrassing. To the bit of me that for some reason still thinks it's a middle-school boy, at least. ^_^;

And it really is sort of strange, because I make these things and then I don't do anything with them at all, because I wouldn't know what~ Note to self: must start giving them away.

Oh pretty!

Hm ... You know, now I'm imagining Jenka quickly hiding a piece of lace as the boys arrive at the campsite she's prepared. ;)

singswithtrees November 15 2009, 15:28:31 UTC

Ha! That would be awesome. And then the boys break out their knitting?

_silverfox November 15 2009, 15:48:28 UTC

Why, of course. You need good warm socks when camping outside in winter and with those claws ...

schmot_gurl November 16 2009, 02:12:19 UTC

Thanks! :D

Hehe, maybe~
