out with the old, in with the new...

Our last meeting of the year saw us sharing our project and ideas with Anne from the Bradwell Abbey Lacemakers. She showed us some divine examples of lace she had made in the past, and taught us some of the basics of lacemaking. We steamed our way through a pile of mince pies and a bag of chocolate whilst attempting to follow a lace snake pattern- which was executed rather slowly but very successfully.






So, after a solid hour of maniacally festive fun, we thanked Anne for a totally great introduction to lace and parted ways. It's been a fantastic autumn for For'm and at our next meeting - Jan 8th - we will be ready to hit the ground running! 
Merry Xmas!!
