Rosaline Lace by Ghislaine Eemans-Moore

Publisher ‏ : ‎ Batsford Ltd; First Edition (5 Nov. 1996)
ISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 0713476036
ISBN-13 ‏ : ‎ 978-0713476033
Rosaline Lace by Ghislaine Eemans-Moore
​This book covers the techniques of Rosaline Lace which Ghislaine Eemans-Moore had worked to bring back into fashion following her studies at the Kant Centre in Bruges.

Rosaline lace has a characteristic embroidered 'peal' which, when joined, create the 'Rosaline-Perlée'

There are few books on this 'forgotten' technique with Jan Geelen's Rosaline Perlée (1991) being one of the few other books on the subject.
What works well?
  • The step by step black and white photos work well to guide the lacemaker through the steps
Anything that we need to take into consideration?
  • Similar techniques are used in Honiton and Duchess so this book would make a good 'next move' for anyone familiar with those laces. 
  • This book is currently out of print and only occasionally appears as a second hand book.

50 New Bobbin Lace Patterns - Claire Burkhard

Publisher : Batsford Ltd (5 Sept. 1993)
ISBN-10 : 9780713469851
ISBN-13 : 978-0713469851
50 New Bobbin Lace Patterns by Claire Burkhard
Claire runs AtelierMB from Switzerland.

She is a prolific author who had published a number of books.
​
This book is one of her best know and certainly most accessible.

A number of the projects use a relatively small number of bobbins, which builds on the techniques used by Claire in her book Lace for Ten Pairs
What works well?
  • This book is multilingual: English, German and French
  • The book is well illustrated with photos of the lace throughout
Anything that we need to take into consideration?
  • A number of the larger patterns are not printed as a full pricking, but rather as a segment which then has to be put together after photocopying.
  • This book is currently out of print, but is often available on eBay
What do other people say?
The Lace Gumnuts site has also reviewed this book:
Full of fascinating projects, with the prickings fully drawn and making good working diagrams.  Some of her stuff needs a bit of thinking about, but it all seems to fall into place as you do it.  Mats, edges, motifs, a fan, collars and dress trims, all sorts of great ideas.
A recommended book for anyone’s lace library

    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.
