The key difference between Maltese lace and Bedfordshire is the inclusion of the iconic Maltese Cross in many of the designs. Focusing firstly on the history of the lace, this book goes on to take you through different patterns to learn the techniques. Consiglia has also produced a book of historical lace patterns by Dun Guzepp Diacono and the book that this is a supplement to. What works well?

This book has been reviewed on the lace gumnuts website
Not to be confused with Cluny de Brioude by Mick Fouriscot and Odette Arpin, published a few years earlier, which is mainly mats and edges. This new book is a treasure trove of motifs, jewellery and a few small mats. The diagrams in the introduction are large and clear, so are the working diagrams for each item. With Christmas just around the corner, I would recommend every Gumnut puts this at the top of their wish list for a Christmas present. It inspires even me (who does not get on very well with leaves, they don’t like me) to try something from this book – trouble is, which pattern! 26/1/2021 0 Comments Cluny de Brioude : modèles inédits de dentelles au fuseau - Mick Fouriscot & Odette Arpin
This book was reviewed on the lace gumnuts website:
Excellent introductory diagrams and working diagrams, all colour coded. Patterns include 3 sets of of edges and corners, two round edges, a star edged mat and a deep collar edge with matching cuffs. Not to be confused with the more recent publication, Cluny de Brioude dentelle polychrome, by Odette Arpin alone.
