The lace I copied was this #Boston area (?) #calash that I love. It's enormous. I don't have the lace dimensions but I used a typical grid size.

1/2 Heading out later, but as the last wave of #HurricaneNicole remnants is still moving through, I'll show you the current #BobbinLace project before I leave.

My current piece is a replica lace. I copied the pattern from this #18thCentury #calash in the Historic New England collection.

I took a class in #torchon design recently, and this was one of my projects--how to diagram the pattern and represent it.
