Here is the link to buy it directly from the author who is in Australia. http://www.lacedaisypress.com.au/pubs1.html For those in the states, Lacy Susan carries it. Her link is: http://www.lacysusan.com/Books/books.html I don't see it listed on her book page but I know she carries it and had several copies at the IOLI convention. She has outstanding service and always puts out orders quickly.

Re: [lace] Re: Early laces
I noticed in The Early Lace Workbook she offers as many questions as answers ;) An impressive publication.

It has a few patterns and very clear working diagrams, and a lot of history about the early laces, threads, etc. A very interesting read. It is, indeed, a very interesting book. Sent me back to the drawing board on one of my past articles, but I won't hold it against Rosemary :) Anything new I learn is always a gift. One of the fascinating things about the -- very few, so far -- books on the early laces is the progress made in deciphering those same early laces. If you start with the Levey/Payne "Le Pompe" (1983) and end with Shepherd's "An Early lace Workbook" (2009) -- travelling via Burkhard's "Fascinating Bobbin Lace", snippets from Nora Andries' "Onder de loep" and Gillian Dye's "Elizabethan Lace" -- you'll notice how much better and more reliable the newer books got in those 26yrs, as more people added their observations into the common "pot". The Levey/Payne was a pioneering work, but the reproductions didn't look anything like the extant laces; some of Shepherd's could fool a museum curator...
