The templates have been removed from the patchwork lace. It is most visible in the centre of the top image. That patchwork seam forms a join between two sections, a third section was then added to those with a lace seam...gently stitched into place.
Going forward, I have another much larger section ready to be damp stretched along with a plan for further sections. I will continue to join them in this way, lace patchwork seams in some places and plain lace seams in others.
Tomorrow I may make a short video to show this piece more clearly. Sometimes it is hard to get an image you are completely happy with.
