Thing 26. My first Teneriffe lace medallion

2 inches wide, made from perle 8 cotton. Teneriffe, also called Sol lace, is a form of needlelace that is worked over a web (the spokes of the wheel) mounted on a form (in this case, a squeaky slab of styrofoam). Design from Alexandra Stillwell’s ,”The Technique of Teneriffe Lace.”
