Hello Kathleen and Arachneans, I agree with Majory Carter about trad. techniques and nowadays pattern. But on the other hand there must be lace which fits in our time and our life and that’s what I and a lot of other German lacemakers try to do. You can see a few of my ideas in my photo album. For those pattern we use all stitches and techniques from the traditional laces and create new grounds.
