The library opens at 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 Biscornu pincushion, led by Vice President, Clare Settle
Some supplies for this project will be provided, but please feel free to bring along your own.
- Quilting cotton fabrics, cut to 5” square, two pieces per person. It would be best if the two fabrics coordinated.
- Thread, needles, and polyester batting
- Buttons (two are needed per biscornu)
A sewing machine (or two) will be available.
