Bobbin Lace Flowers - Doris Olsen

Publisher : Akacia
ISBN : 9788778471048
Bobbin Lace Flowers by Doris Olsen
Doris Olsen's book is full of big, blowsy flowers that you just have to make.
What works well?
  • ​This book is sumptuously illustrated throughout with colour photos and working diagrams
Anything that we need to take into consideration?
  • This book provides not just the information on making the lace petals, but also how to assemble the flowers.
  • This book is out of print, but occasionally it comes up second hand on eBay and lace suppliers.

    I'm the lace bee and these are my books

    With currently over 300 books and about the same number of individual patterns, I have an enviable library.  So here are some of my books.

    ​You can see all of the titles by opening up the archives or by clicking on the categories which I've used to group by authors, language and lace types

    I am very grateful to the lace gumnuts of Australia for permission to quote and link their reviews to this site.
