Re: [lace] macrame
Hi All, Thanks Lorelei for this great site. I also was not aware of this kind of macrame! Sorry but I'm not up on changing it to a tiny URL : ( > https://plus.google.com/photos/111439440412818161591/albums/57832759499743889?banner=pwa&gpsrc=pwrd1#photos/111439440412818161591/albums/578327594997431 7889?banner=pwa&gpsrc=pwrd1 I'd also like to draw your attention to "Le Macrame" by Th. de Dillmont. THe book is from 1922 and is on the Professor's site. I don't have that URL at my figertips either. The book does have two "sculptural" flowers but the rest are borders or insertions - just incredibly gorgeous things!! It's in French but the diagrams look pretty good for non-French readers like me. The variety is amazing and the combinations seem endless. It's called Macrame Lace in some of my magazines circa 1900 so I think it's an appropriate topic for Lace!

[lace] Professor's site of old publications
Hi again, here is the Professor's site URL www.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving You can find the Macrame book I mentioned there along with tons of other lace and needlework books. Many(all?) have it set up so you can see a sample page before downloading the whole book. What a treasure trove!

Re: [lace] macrame
Yes! I was given a piece for the lace collection here while visiting in Budapest after the OIDFA Caen Congress. So much of my collection is old, and it is fun to add newly minted pieces from time to time. Even very little ones. Mine is similar to the pink flower center-top on the macrame page Lorelei gave.

Re: [lace] macrame
Very pretty. It does have a very different (robust!) look, but still pretty! Clay On 10/6/2012 4:13 PM, Lorelei Halley wrote: I just came across some new macramé.
