"Well done! Very neat, smooth stitching. You must have blocked it or ironed it -- the waviness on the edge has disappeared."
Kathy Neal commented on Lorelei Halley's group Reticella-reticello"What type and ct linen do you use for embroidered reticello? Any preference as to brand? Most of the books I have say 18ct/cm which I assume means 45ct/in. I started my second project, a hand towel, on Alba Maxima 40ct. I…"

I see that you figured out how to edit what you typed in. Where do you think you will start? Be sure to look at our albums of photos. There are lots and lots of lace, some antique, but most made by our members. You will find beginners' work and expert master pieces.

Kathy
Welcome. Please read all the NOTES. They explain our policies, the laces we include, and how the software works. We do include both embroidered reticello and needle lace reticello (punto in aria), but not punto antico. Are you a member of stitchinfingers? There are some people there who make punto antico. http://stitchinfingers.ning.com
If you have any questions, contact me and I'll try to help.
