It is becoming a lost art. I have only found a few old lady are doing it. I found a guild in San Bernardo. We meet at the San Bernardo museum every Wed afternoon from 1 to 4. P\As part of the living history display. We use bobbin, little sticks of wood about the size of a small pencil and weave lace on a big pillow. My pillow doesn't have one on it right now or I would have taken a picture of it.
So another day I will take a picture of it and show you how it is made.
One of the first pieces I made.
Sorry, this one is a little blurry.
I love lace making. I have only been doing it for about 8 years and still have lots to learn to be as good as either Lolly or Shirley. It is my wish to be as good as they are someday.

Margene - those are stunning! I'm glad you too found some "old lady" friends to hang out with and do fun stuff with! (WE couldn't possibly be 'old ladies'!)
Oh no, I am not old. And I am not the oldest in the group either. I am not the youngest either. But we have fun talkilng. I am suprized I much I forgot while I was on my mission. But it is coming back to me.
Those are so beautiful. Years ago you gave me a little lace bookmark you made while we were in San Felipe, and I still have it and use it.
