Hello Mark,

I think that you were doing the same than me: googling for Lepoglava.
Lepoglava is in Croatia. "Cipke" means lace in many Slovak languages.

Have a look at this interesting video about this the lace in Lepoglava.
Scrolling down the page you will see the huge dome pillow. I suppose they
are doing a kind of "lace marathon"... all lacing at the same time in a big
project...

Thanks to Laurie Waters for the information in your blog. Although I don't
buy lace antiques, I love looking at them and, if I like them, try to find
out something more about them. And this is the case of Lepoglava lace.

Best regards,

Antje González, from Spain.

I might have answered a little part of my question HAH.  I found this video
that showcases the finish project at a festival(fiber arts and lace?) in
Lepoglova 2009.  It features some really nice examples of interesting uses
for lace on clothing and at the end is the object in question.  Looks like a
big lace igloo!  Still don't know what it is other than "lace art" or a very
large hoop skirt to go under a garment. ;)

Here is that video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiuQLuB1zbY

[lace] Cipke - type of bobbinlace?

[Tatman]

I don¹t understand this language(I think it is Polish), but I found this
video of a huge lace project that several lacemakers are undertaking. They
are using almost 10 inch dowel bobbins loaded with thread on this huge dome
shaped "pillow" that stands taller than the lacemakers.  Can anyone tell me
more about it and what its purpose is?  It is HUGE!

Very interesting!!

Re: [lace] Lace from a painting

[Sister Claire]

Thanks, Lorri.

The lace I have in mind will be an interpretation of the second painting on
the page, the center section. I won't be creating something new, just
interpreting it in a different medium.

This is already so much fun, though I am at the very beginning stage of
studying the image and imagining it in lace, thinking about techinques,
colors and threads. I'm quite a conservative person who likes to tred in
well-used paths, so this is really a departure for me!

RE: [lace] Lace from a painting

[Lorri Ferguson]

I don't see any copyright issues here at all.  You are taking inspiration from
the painting(s) and creating a totally different work or 'art'.
Do keep us up to date on your progress!  And good luck to you.
