Gon Homburg.This autumn, the TRC Artisan School for Textiles and Dress organises a bobbin lace course which is taught by Gon Homburg. She learned to make lace from her mother and from 1983 she is officially registered as a bobbin lace teacher. She teaches enthusiasts and gives workshops to various art schools.
The course consists of two sets of three lessons each. In the first three lessons, the principles of bobbin lace making are discussed and practised. In the second series, a small Christmas ornament is made.
You can choose to take all six lessons, or only the first or second set. If you only take the last three lessons, we expect you to have mastered the basics of bobbin lace making.
The course is given on six Thursdays, from 10.00-13.00:
Thursday October 7; Thursday October 21; Thursday 4 November
Thursday 11 November; Thursday December 2; Thursday December 16
