This original and exciting guide to lace is a visual feast of inspiring step-by-step projects; it will encourage you to experiment, inspire you with handy tips, and provide sources for further inspiration

Typically associated with frilly hankies and flouncy collars that are time-consuming to make and invariably white, the 30 projects in this book span the colour spectrum and make use of paper, fabric, thread and even concrete!

This original and exciting guide to lace is a visual feast of inspiring step-by-step projects; it includes in-depth features and fascinating asides relating to the history of lace; it will encourage you to experiment, inspire you with handy tips, and provide sources for further inspiration. Projects use needle lace, needle weaving and drawn-thread work on fabric, paper, and in conjunction with found items. Some projects feature techniques such as using self-hardening clay and papier-mâché; some feature ready-made lace, either entirely, or as something that can be added to.
