I have replied to H M Clarke telling him it is the only book for him. Best ever for bobbin making styles.
Abes books has it for about $30 which is about the cost price if I remember. The other prices I saw were ridiculous. I could sell my copy and retire!! Smile I forgot to ask him if he has approached David direct as I believe he self publishes sometimes??????

I am interested in David Springett’s book “Turning Lace Bobbins”. Since it is long out of print, I am unable to look at a copy first. I am looking for the ‘tricks of the trade’ for doing the different decorative styles rather than topics such as ‘how to turn a basic bobbin’ or ‘choosing or setting up your lathe’ or even ‘how to turn bone’. Therefore I am looking to you for more information. Do you have this book? Is it any good? What topics does it cover? How do you think it compares with my ‘wish list’ above? If anyone knows of a cheap copy then I would be delighted to hear that as well ;-) Thank you in advance, Helen in the sunny west coast of mainland Canada, where most people are recovering from Thanksgiving - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
