Subject : Re: [lace] Needle Lace Revival Margaret Stephens, here in Australia, is very much an expert and teacher in needle lcae. her classes at both the Embroiders' Guild and the Lace guild are booked out.
Thank you Lorelie for sending me the link so see Margaret Stephens work, which I have finally found time to look browse leisurely through this morning. Her work is indeed very beautiful, colourful and certainly eye catching! I love her choice of colours too and read all the wonderful comments from admirers and her own helpful hints. However she did write on 30th March 2014 and I quote 'Keep doing that white, Traditional work . . . . . . . . . . because I can't (and have no desire to do so)' I have not criticised anyone for working coloured contemporary work but simply asked was there anyone out there who makes/teaches fine white traditional needlelace? In answer to that question, I was told about Margaret Stephens. Thanks to Lorelie I have now seen some wonderful examples of her work.
