Happy Easter

Well the sunshine is trying to come out, is it shinning where you are?

Spring always mean a time to sort out, a bit of a spring clean. I found out some of my early pieces of Bobbin Lace, which are Easter theme.

This little rabbit was one of my first pieces, so that was longtime ago.

Easter Bunny 🐰

Hope you all have a lovely Easter Weekend whatever you can get up to.

2021 – Challenge is at a end

Throughout January I’ve have been taking part in a Instagram challenge set by Jane Fuller of “Bobbin & Wire”. 

It had prompt for each day some easily connected to lace and lace making and some making you think out of the box.  Have a look on Instagram (link to my page) for #lacechallenge_2021 – but also the other fantastic lace makers from around the world that have contributed over the month.
