Needle Lace: Holiday Ornaments

The next class, following the August meeting, will be needle lace. The needle lace ornament program will be led by Dagmar F. Patterns available at previous meeting - or check your e-mail for patterns / attachments.

Participants will have more time for filling stitches if the patterns are prepared ahead of time. The finished ornament(s) could be used on the Haan Masion wreath we are donating this year.

Ornaments will be sold individually + wreath (unsold ornaments) will be returned to our chapter for future use.
