Description:

This website is for those who love to make lace, who want to learn lace making, or who love to collect lace. Special emphasis goes to bobbin lace, my specialty, but also to needle lace, pulled thread work and Hardanger embroidery. You will find descriptions of the working methods of many forms of hand made lace, and lessons for bobbinlace, needle lace, pulled thread embroidery (also called drawn fabric embroidery) and Hardanger embroidery. I have included information on books for needlelace, as well as links to a few tutorials. There are many photos of antique lace, and of laces made by living lace makers, or designed by living lace designers. For those interested in lace identification, my aim is to increase your understanding of the structure of the various laces, and thereby increase your enjoyment of the objects you love. This is a new and updated version of my old website loreleihalley.com. Below find a complete list of all the pages in this website, with a brief description of the contents of each page.Nearly all the photos on this website have been taken by me using a film camera, more recent ones with a digital camera. Many close-ups of small pieces were scanned in. Some, about 5%, are digital files passed to me over the internet by the photographer, and used with their permission. None are from books. The range of photos reflects the contents of personal lace collections of people I know personally. (The abbreviation c/o means from the collection of .) Only a very few had laces in their collections which were really old -- prior to 1800. I encountered some of the oldest laces seen here very early in my attempts at photography, before I had macro capabilities. So I don t have close-ups of the oldest pieces, much to my sorrow.All the images immediately visible on these pages are thumbnails: small reduced versions to make loading faster. To see the whole image in all its glory, click wherever you see a hand. But many of the pages have large numbers of thumbnails and are slow to load, even so. Please be patient. Also you may want to see a much enlarged version of some images (the detail is really there). You can achieve this easily in Internet Explorer by looking for the PAGE button on the Explorer bar (right side just above the image). Click on PAGE, then on ZOOM and view the files at 200%. You can then see each thread (in many, but not all, photos).Lace Identification -- different techniques and methods of lacemaking* Kinds of Lace: brief descriptions of the major structural methods of making lace Compare: photos showing different kinds of lace side by side to help in distinguishing themLace terminology: the names of the parts of a lace Two structures: structural analysis of various styles of bobbin lace Brief historical summary: bobbin laceTo Order my books and patterns My Books and Patterns About Specific Laces Bobbin Lace Lace Identification-History Modern Bobbin Lace Learning Bobbin Lace Achieving a basic understanding of the various kinds of bobbin lace, learning bobbinlace, make bobbinlace, how to get started.
