Notes

Generic bead mix from my stash, size 8 rocailles

Apart from leaves and lace edge, bead placement is my own judgement.

mod: changed to a more lacy border during the first transition chart as well.

The beginning is kind of tedious, especially as the result resembles more a dishcloth than lace while unblocked. Once into the lace that changes, though.

Chart A (18repeats ) used 12g
Chart B (first transition) used 2g
Chart C (little fern, 14 repeats) used 19g, app 7 g per 5 repeats
Chart D (second transition) used 2g
Chart E (vines,38 repeats) used 25g
Chart F (third transition) used 8g
After 5 16 row-repeats in chart G I still have 18g left. So am working some more repeats.
Chart G (falling leaves: 6 instead of three repeats of 3) used 22g
Chart H (lace edging, small points) used 4g

Would have had enough for one, possibly two 16 row repeats of G, but was unsure. And it is already huge :-)
