An amazing weekend

I have had an amazing weekend. I am a member of a bobbin lace guild and this guild had an exposition because it was their third lustrum.  And... what was very nice!!! The guild allowed me to show my tatting Here you see my three dollies designed by myself and my shuttles (the Palmetto's know : I don't smoke I don't drink, so I can buy those expensive shuttles) 


Here you see my special project what I tatted for the memory corner of my son Wilbert, placed on a wonderful bobbin lace table cloth.  
This is also very special The members of the guild made each a small part of bobbin lace in a special color One of the members put them all together in this nice kind of a quilt. It is very thin just like a curtain and hanging in front of a white board.

Here you see shuttles between the bobbin lace, but also a bottle with liqueur on the bottle is a picture of a lady who is making bobbin lace
Here is my tree next to colored bobbin lace bracelets and some other small projects.










It was all wonderful, we had a  lot of visitors and were really tired
at the end of the two days But it was worth it to do all those work.
I also want to show you Nora laying on the hay in a barn. Her mum said I am happy she is still alone on that hay.
