Thanks so much. First time lace maker here, very useful tutorial :)

It’s really even more irritating with a dog barking!

That was a lot of work for one fan. I have always wanted to learn how to make lace but never had the chance to learn. I am happy that you are sharing your knowledge and so detailed in the process. Thank you and I will keep watching.

It's really irritating not to be able to see your hands!

Please film so we can see the bobbins!

I found this video quite helpful, thank you for posting

Thank you, very instructive video.

I don't have monofiliment or crimp beads, so I've used beading thread ran through 2 to 3 times through all beads, then knotting half way down each side from the bobbin. We shall see how long it lasts. lol.

This was very useful but I wonder if you meant to stop coming back through one at the edge. You did it for the first few and mentioned the green would stay at the edge but then you changed method. Could you explain about this please.

Beautiful!!

I watched this with subtitles switched on. Was shocked to see that the pattern costs £33-50.

I wanna see her go full speed, as fast as she can!

I love this video for reminding how to do spiders and you explain it so well. Thank you

Thanks for the step-by-step demo. I'd love to see close-ups of the final lace as well as the pin diagrams in future videos! It helps me understand it in a different way.

That looks like fun

I’m not sure if you’ve already produced video for adding thread when bobbin runs out - I’ll look but I’d appreciate seeing your version. Question: is the cross twist direction universally done the same? I swear I’ve seen cross and twist done differently-meaning right to left or left to right? Hope I’m making sense. Really like your tutorials.

Very nice, thank you!

Fabulous- I need a teacher like you. Thank you so much.

Very good video! ThNk you for doing it!

You need to do a booklet or book to go with you series of stitches! I would definitely buy it! You are great at explaining!

Wow. You just reminded me of my former teacher, Ms McPhee. I think that was her name. She started the bobbin lace club in Ann Arbor, Michigan. She translated "the book" from French to english

Would love to see how you mount on leather!

Hi Sandra, I have Lizabeth size 10, and DMC size 20, can I use those?

This is so helpful to see the differences up close, thank you!

I love the way you did this! Thank you for posting such clear instructions!

I haven’t worked bobbin lace in a year, having to do review a lot. Bought a couple bookmarks that you sold when on Etsy. Can’t wait to do them again. Couldn’t find you on Etsy,

So glad you have done another video! You explain everything so well.

Thank you so much for showing this at a slower speed. Most do it so fast while holding the bobbins that you can’t see how to really do it.

I am absolutely interested in a video showing how to join in threads.

Good morning miss Sandra. I am so happy to see you in another video. I am working with another blind lady who has been bobbin lacing since 1976. We just finished working on spiders and I think this fan with scallops is what we're doing next. My roller pillow is on back-order but I'm managing to struggle along with the cookie pillow that came in the kit I bought from Snowgoose Lace. I love working with sine 40/2 linen thread. I'm a thread crocheter so I'm used to the no stretch factor. So far we've done, Princess lace, diamonds, and spiders, and of course wink-a-pin. The size 20 thread that came in with the kit I just added to my tatting thread stash.

Where we get this bobbins

Thank you for sharing your expertise! Can you please tell us what size and brand of thread you are using?

What exactly is the gimp made of? Is it a thicker thread or just another color of the same threads?

I’m just getting into bobbin lace. Where did u get ur roller/cube combo pillow? Thanks 😀

I first tried lace as a teenager, and I made my own beads out of Polymer clay haha! Today, I dug out my old lace making kit and want to have another go at doing some more lace. I also do lampwork, so I’m looking forward to remaking my spangles with my own glass beads this time!

Hello Sandra. I have recently joined a bobbin lace group on facebook and was looking for your group as well. I would love to join. My searches for the lace owl have been in vain. Thank you.

This is so helpful! I just bought my first bobbin lace making tools and am going to start from zero

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge teacher. Appreciating this so much!

Thank you for the information I just started bobbin lace and need all the help I can get

Thank you

I love seeing the stitches explained. But, I am interested to know....If you continued with half stitch long enough, would the pairs come back together again as they started?

good

If your linen starts shredding, dampen it a wee bit, it will bring it back strong (weaver who is just getting into bobbin lace) it is the reason why linen is spun in the damp

Oh! For a visual learner like me, seeing every thread in a different color made this suddenly make so much sense. Thank you ever so much! Question, could I use a similar technique to make the lace tape for battenberg lace?

I cannot wait for more videos,

What does one do if a bobbin runs out in the middle of a work?

I have just discovered your videos and I find them extremely useful but I am wondering if you could include what the lace looks like completed (without the pins to obscure the view of the lace)?

Good morning Sandra. Thank you for making such detailed videos. I am a blind crafter. I knit, crochet, and shuttle tat. I hope to add spinning and real lace making. I feel if I had the bobbins and pillow I could follow along with you. Have you ever taught someone who was blind? The card stock used for patterns is thick enough to handle a tracing wheel.. Making the lines raised would be easy to feel. Working with fine threads won't be a problem since the bobbins are what is being handled. I love the thought of spangled bobbins with pretty charms.

I'd have enjoyed it more if you zoomed in more often, but thank you xxx

Thankyou so much for your tutorials they are so helpful xxx
