Bobbin Lace: An Illustrated Guide to Traditional and Contemporary Techniques (Dover Books on Needlepoint, Embroidery)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2004-12-13 Summary: A Good All Around Book for the Beginner ... As another reviewer stated, this book would be a good place for a beginner to start their lace adventure. The author begins with a little lace history and an explanation of the tools used in lace making. She then goes on to provide a tutorial on each of the basic lace techniques. Using this book and following the author's directions, I have been able to make my own lace "cookie" type pillow and a cylindrical lace pillow. I have worked through a number of the tutorials and did not find them "too wordy". :) The examples ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 1999-11-10 Summary: A good, solid beginner's manual ... The strongest point of this book, in my opinion, is the wonderful gallery of modern laces shown to inspire the new lacemaker. I really don't care for most of the patterns in this book, but that is no reason why you would dislike them. Still, the diagrams are clear, the instructions are fine (although a little wordy on occasion), and there are instructions for making several kinds of pillows. This is a good, solid reference which I would reccomend particualrly to the new lacemaker on a budget. ...more

Practical Skills in Bobbin Lace
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 1999-11-10 Summary: A must-have for all bobbin lacers ... This is my personal lacemaking bible. Especially helpful for those who have little or no access to other lacemakers, it is chock-full of diagrams showing virtually every technique imaginable. There are no patterns in this book; it is purely technique. Still, without it I would have lost my mind on several occasions. If you are learning bobbin lace, this book is one of the best buys you could possibly make. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 1999-10-25 Summary: A definite must for bobbin lace makers ... Bridget Cook's Practical Skills (the Cook Book among fans) is a definite must for lacemakers. This is not a pattern book, nor a beginner book. It is the ultimate companion for bobbin lace makers, providing answers to almost every technical problem that arises when making bobbin lace. More often than not Cook provides several solutions to a problem, so you can choose the solution that suits your lace best. This book has saved my lace (and my sanity) several times and I heartily recommend it. ...more
