Novel incorporating lacemaking

A Christmas gift was the romantic novel "Lord of Lightning" by Janet Lynnford. It is a very interesting read. I enjoyed it very much. The heroine is a lacemaker who dreams of opening a lace shop and selling her original designs.  The author took the time to research lacemaking with the Central Ohio Lacemakers Guild properly and wove it into the story well.

Now back to making lace instead of reading about it.

Decorating Mood-Lace Making Mood

I have put the Christmas tree up, hung the stockings with care--while I have several bobbin lace and tatted ornaments for my tree, I'm in the mood to make some more--maybe I'll find some time for that-check out the Bobbin Lace page to see the Lace Christmas Trees I used as centerpieces at our church Ladies Christmas Brunch. I need to get the Christmas ornaments done quickly for this holiday season so I can start on let's see Valentine's, Easter bunnies and such. Have fun lacing!
