Morning Modelbuch (10/27/2018)
When you have talented friends you start getting delusions. I’ve been watching a friend work on an amazing lace apron full of reticella squares. When I saw this page in Wilhelm Hoffmann’s _Newes vollkommenes modelbuch von vierhundert schonen modeln_ from 1604, I printed it up for that “someday” when I’ve practiced enough to give my own a try.
