Today I was in the mood to practice needle lace. All it takes is a needle and thread.
I'm still making lots of mistakes, but I'm learning. The yellow flower only has four petals because I snipped a thread when I shouldn't have. Rather than be discouraged, I started another flower in red.
This is my best effort so far. There are still mistakes, but I can tell I'm improving.
Feeling confident, I started a fourth flower. Once again, I goofed. I skipped the second loop, so there wasn't a place for the fifth petal. Oh, well. Maybe the next one will be better!

I think dogwood blossoms only have 4 petals. :) They look nice.

Ah! Then I will claim I was making a dogwood blossom!
DeleteThey look pretty to me!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou could put the white one under the red or yellow off-set and make a double layered flower! ;)
Good idea!
DeleteWow, well done, I do like the look of your flowers. It’s never easy to learn a new technique and you’re definitely making progress.
