Book Review: Gorgeous Patterns, Easy to Make
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not the first book you should get if you want to learn to make bobbin lace, but it would be an excellent investment once you've worked your way through most of a beginner's book. As long as you've had some basic instruction, these patterns should be well within your skill range. What's more, they make a dramatic statement with a minimum of expertise.
As for me, I've been making lace for the better part of twenty years now, and this is my go-to book for a quick and fun pattern to work. Whether it's for me, for a demonstration, a gift, or just to keep my hands busy while I'm watching television, this book nearly always has a great pattern for my purpose.
Summary of 50 New Bobbin Lace Patterns
"50 New Bobbin Lace Patterns" includes fifty original designs for collars and cuffs, window and door hangings, handkerchiefs, tablecloths, napkins, mats, motifs and small decorations, a shawl, a fan, a lampshade and even a patchwork quilt. Most of the patterns feature simple techniques, requiring only a limited number of bobbins and a basic knowledge of Torchon and tape lace. They are therefore suitable for beginners and young lacemakers (including children), as well as for those with greater experience looking for relaxed yet enjoyable projects.Crafts & Hobbies Books
