Special Effects in Bobbin Lace - Sandi Woods

Publisher : Batsford Ltd (31 May 1998)
ISBN-10 : 0713480718
ISBN-13 : 978-0713480719
Special Effects in Bobbin Lace by Sandi Woods
Subtitle: Over 20 patterns using colour in bobbin lace
This is definitely a book to buy when you see it even if you are not yet making Milanese Lace as the patterns are very aspirational.

​Whilst this book is aimed at understanding colour, it also takes the lacemaker through building up large pictures using smaller elements.

    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.
