Original idrija lace design Tina Koder

Autumn 2026 Online Idrija Lace Pattern Design Course – Call for Applications

Ljubljana, 16TH OF september 2026

  • Drawing of lace patterns by hand

As autumn approaches, I am delighted to invite you once again to join my online bobbin lace pattern design course, starting this October.

Who is this course tailored for?

Anyone looking to bring a more creative edge to their bobbin lace and infuse their work with their own unique artistic flair.

  • Pumpkin lace pattern
  • Construction broad tape Idrija Lace

The course includes 10 weekly group sessions conducted live via Zoom with individualized feedback and guidance provided via email between sessions. Each week, we will explore a new design topic that sets the foundation for your weekly assignment. The curriculum progresses from drafting simple narrow-tape patterns to incorporating other techniques, creating repeating patterns, broad-tape designs, and motif lace. We will also cover color theory in lace and how to design patterns for 3D lace.

We will draw our patterns by hand. Please note that no prior drawing experience is required—the curriculum is structured to gradually build both your technical skills and your creative confidence from the ground up. However, because pattern design is deeply connected to the mechanics of lacemaking, at least a basic knowledge of bobbin lace is recommended.

Course Dates: Wednesdays at 8:00 PM (CET), starting Wednesday, October 7th.

Course Fee: €150.00.

Why limit yourself to existing patterns when, with a little practice, you can bring your own visions to life?
