Kit for Bedfordshire Daisy Bookmark

Description

This kit accompanies the Bedfordshire Daisy Bookmark workshop.

Instructor: Louise West

Course Description: This daisy bookmark is designed for practice at adding and throwing out pairs of bobbins, and also includes techniques of starting a trail in both directions, plaits, picots, cloth stitch areas starting on a horizontal line of pins, cloth stitch with vertical and horizontal veins, and a few leaf tallies. It is a pattern that gently gives you practice at these techniques, which are particularly useful to build experience when starting with floral techniques.

Level: Intermediate

Prerequisite: Lacemakers must be confident in geometric Beds lace and ready to start floral with adding/throwing of pairs.

Dates: 3 Tuesdays – May 26, June 2, 9, 2026

Times: 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm AEST / 10:00 am – 12:30pm BST / 5:00 am – 7:30 am EDT

Kit Description: The kit is a laser-cut, ready-to-work pricking with the pattern sheet.

Students Must Provide: Approximately 60 pairs of bobbins (finca 60 or equivalent). Because of the putting in and throwing out, bobbins should be wound with more thread on one of each pair, enabling the reuse of bobbins more quickly.
