Tangram Competition

This year the convention competition was lace tangrams.

The first prize was won by Arachne Eve Morton for her entry "Septimus". Well done Eve.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Convention Workshops
This is my sampler from the "Beads and Bobbin Lace" workshop with Jan Tregidgo on Friday afternoon - showing several different ways of attaching beads to bobbin lace.

This is my twisty which I made during Adrienne Thunder's "Twist and Turn" workshop on Sunday morning. We used plastic covered telephone wire as outer passives with a variety of different threads.

I made mine into a brooch which I wore for the rest of the day.
