The caption to the photo of the bookmarks included which pattern pack each of the bookmarks shown was from. (The patterns from the Retournac museum are only available in sets - there are about 20 sets now, some of which may be out-of-print at the moment - not as individual patterns).
The sets are beautiful (I have quite a few of them) but not particularly cheap, especially for those buying in £ or $ at the moment. Probably not quite worth buying a set just to make the bookmark from it, but worth looking at. BTW Susan, the patterns have no or very little diagrams/instructions so might not be suitable for a near beginner.

Sorry... Clay hottl...@neo.rr.com wrote: > To Clay! Thanks so much for posting the Retournac photos!!! As a newbie, I'm sick to death of bookmark samples. But these--well--they are so--shall I say-- tres chic! Truly works of art. Sort of the Emeril Lagasse-ified version--BAM! In your honor, I started a little Mirecourt piece today. It took forever to wind the bobbins with 1.5 hands--but--I've got it started. So maybe the endless hours of hand & finger therapy exercise will win out. Thanks again for the inspiration. I'm looking forward to the prickings/diagrams. Is there a link?
