Book excerpt: “The Art Of Bobbin Lace” is a detailed guide to producing lace, a decorative, open-work fabric formed by looping, interlacing, braiding or twisting threads of various fibres. This vintage guide contains a wealth of timeless information that will be of as much use to needlework enthusiasts today as when first published, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Important Hints”, “The Art Of Bobbin Lace”, “Preparing The Bobbins”, “The Patterns”, “'Genoese' Lace Edge”, “Doyley In Point De Flandre”, “Applique Trimming In Flandres”, “Point”, “Motifs In Point De Flandre”, “Bolero In Guipure De Flandre”, “'Festoon'”, “'Spider' Web Stitch”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on lace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lace Making and Collecting: An Elementary Handbook "But when I bought it they told me it was Brussels - Swiss Brussels," she said plaintively. "That explains everything," the lace expert replied. "You bought it in Switzerland and paid five guineas for it. The price was iniquitous, of course, but that is the name they have given it, and by the name you were misled." "And it is really not worth the quarter of that sum?" "See," said the expert. "Here is a piece of genuine applied Brussels. Do you see how the weaving threads cross and return, each time leaving a firm edge behind? Compare it with your own. The designs are much alike, for the Swiss work has taken the Brussels for its model, but look at the edges of the pattern. The texture is just ordinary lawn attached by chain stitch to the machine made net foundation. The edges are raw where the material has been cut away, and are ready to fray out and in time drop away altogether." "I see now, but I wonder that I never noticed it before," rejoined the would-be collector, and then she looked up thoroughly puzzled: "Now that I know my lace is only an applied material, how am I to tell that it is not Carrickmacross?"

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Honiton Lace Book: Being the Second and Enlarged Edition of Honiton Lace-Making; And Containing Full and Practical Instructions for Acquiring the Art of Making This Beautiful and Fashionable Lace The kind manner in which my little treatise on the art of Lace making has been received, has encouraged me to publish it in a revised and enlarged form. I have made a few verbal alterations in the earlier patterns, as in the course of frequent working, better and quicker modes of doing them presented themselves, still the first part is substantially the same as when originally written. In the second part I have endeavoured to enlarge the area of Honiton lace, and vary the interest, by reviving some of the many different combinations of stitches in which the workers delighted in the old days when Lace-making was at its zenith, before they sunk to the weary round of turkey's tails, spread eagles, conventional roses, vulgar lilies, coarse thread, bad work, and little pay. The concluding instructions are devoted to a form of Lace which is a novelty in England, though it has been long worked in Brussels; I mean the process of doing flowers in relief, by means of which the white threads may be formed into a veritable work of art, and afford scope alike for genius and for high mechanical skill. I must here add one word of thanks to my kind and talented coadjutor, Olive, without the aid of whose clever drawings it would have been impossible for me to have rendered my descriptions intelligible.

Download or read book Lace and Lace Making written by Alice-May Bullock and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of lace are probably in net-work, which is referred to in the Bible and has been found in Egyptian tombs. The more elaborate forms, such as needlepoint and bobbin lace, did not appear until the fifteenth or sixteenth century. It is generally agreed that needlepoint lace was developed in Italy while bobbin lace was developed in Flanders, and it was from Flanders and other European countries that thousands of Protestants fled to England to escape religious persecution, bringing their lace making skills with them. Lace and Lace Making charts the early history of this craft, and then recounts how various European forms were adapted. The book describes how the bobbin lace industry operated, with home workers selling their work to touring lace dealers, and how this cottage industry was disastrously affected by the introduction of lace making machines in the second half of the eighteenth century. The book also talks about lace schools, their customs and holiday celebrations, the lace tells that were recited while working, the many attractive and historically interesting bobbin inscriptions, the numerous laws that were made regulating the wearing of lace and the ways that were found to circumvent these laws-such as smuggling. A great amount of detailed research has gone into producing this book, which provides a fascinating account of a once important craft industry that is now enjoying a welcome revival.
