This is my second class with the lovely Louise Collgan. The first was with the Lacemakers of Puget Sound. May 27 – May 29, 2000. This year I’m working the butterfly pattern.
Milanese is an Italian Bobbin Lace. It is characterized by freely flowing decorative braids.Milanese lace was made from the 17th century up to the late 18th century and was made mainly as flounces or entire collars or apron edgings rather than as narrow edging like Genoese. Milanese was, in contrast to genoese, boldly flower patterened and free-flowing.
to make a nuisance of myself with my new digital camera. Paul & I went to Fry’s last night and bought a ” Canon S410.” I had hoped that Fry’s might have a deal on a refurbished camera or last year’s model. They had a couple of S400’s that were floor models. They were really dinged up and were camera only, no battery, battery charger and no cables. They wanted $250-$300 for that (yikes).
