We both love Urban Threads, because their designs are all a little weird. Also their explanations are clear, and I love their creativity.
The choker is going to be nice enough if you tie a little black velvet ribbon at the ends, but it also has enough little places to sew on delicate chains or other things.
Now that I've finally learned how to make Free Standing Lace, or FSL, it's a lot more fun. The shiny stuff you see at the edge of the lace is the stabilizer, Solvy Ultra. I've also used Soluvlies, and it works better than the Solvy.
Here are the next designs DD wants, and this time she wants them on fabric-covered boxes, like in the course I just took.
