I agree with Brenda and Catherine. It looks like point de gaze needle lace,
just from the style alone. We don't have enough detail to see individual
threads.

Hi Julie
It looks like Point de Gaze, but not detailed enough to be certain that itâs
all needle lace with no bobbin fillings to make it mixed Brussels. A very
nice piece of lace.

Could someone please tell me what sort of lace this is ? My friend was given
this beautiful piece which is 7 1/2 inches wide x 62 inches long for her
birthday and we do not know anything about it. Any information you could give
us would be a great help thank you.

Page 125 of Veronica Sorenson's Modern Lace Designs has a windmill, but it is a

Hello Carol,
I will send you some scans from a Dutch magazine "Kant Kwartaal" published by
Jolanda de Boer-van Nes in 1993. It is a pattern of a stylised lighthouse in

Hi Carol
I don't suppose that this is going to be much help to your friend but I'm sure
that there is a pattern for a windmill in one of Veronica Sorensen's books.
Definitely not the Bruges flower lace, but one of the others, I can't remember
which and am at work at the moment so can't check.

Support pins are pins set back a little way from the first row of stitches -
you hang the pairs on support pins while you work the first pinhole(s) using
those pairs, then take the support pins out and tension gently to get the

It sort of looks like <( only they are on top of each other.

Mouline is the same as Anchor or DMC stranded embroidery threads. If you are
using all 6 strands it is probably the gimp in the pattern.
perigarn rings a bell, but not loudly enough for me to recall it!!! I can't

Yes, use the Bruges pivot pin method.
The first time you work that pinhole in the usual way (by working
through the last passive in cloth stitch, twist the workers and stick
the pin). On the next and subsequent times you come to that pin work
until the last pair of passives, twist t
I am working a piece of lace that on a corner needs one of the inner pins to
