Withof Bobbin Lace & Poems by Karen: January 2013

I tried to get the whole tree in the picture.

We tried to measure it's height and I think it was about 85 feet tall.

It was well over 100 years old.

What a beauty!

Welcome friends!

Well hello to all! This is a first to me so please bear with this novice. My life has become enriched with many types of fiberworks. When I was a 5 year old child my grandmother taught me how to crochet with a tiny hook and crochet cotton. As time went by I have grown into knitting, cross stitch, needlepoint, and tatting. My favorite of all is lacemaking. Withof lace is my very favorite type of lace to make and design. I love the distict lines and shadows withof is noted for and how designs can be so defined. Color can be added, however I prefer to use white for definition. There are times that Kreinik sparkle threads have been used in my laces, again I like to use white sparkle threads for emphisis. I hope you enjoy looking at these laces as much as I enjoy creating them.
