Welcome to all bobbin lacemakers.

Click on the appropriate bobbin below for more information about the patterns for each lace and to see worked examples of the available patterns.
First I must apologize to everyone who has looked at my web siterecently and found that it had not been updated for a long time. My webhost went out of business without warning and I could not gain entry to the siteto do anything about it. Hopefully, the problem has now been sorted and mynew web host will behave itself!
During the time when I could not reach my website to update it,I have had to increase prices slightly. I'm sorry, but I could not absorb theincrease in production costs any longer. I have tried to keep the increaseas low as possible.
I design bobbin lace patterns and supply them printed on pricking card.
Each pattern has the necessary working lines printed for the fulllength of the pattern. The patterns are therefore ready to prick. This means that you do not need to do any time-consuming marking up.

For each design a ready to prick pricking, a picture of the completed laceand details of thread and number of bobbins needed to work the lace are given.
A working diagram is also included with the majority of prickings. Ihave stated on the relevant pages of the web site which patterns do nothave a working diagram.
The prickings are drawn using a computer I think this is the method whichproduces the most accurate prickings and as all lacemakers know, an accuratepricking is essential for working good lace.
The designs include
- Bucks Point
- Torchon
- Dis-Torchon
- Bedfordshire
- Braid

This page is a collection of the little samples I've made while learning various styles of bobbin lace. I am a sort of methodical plodder.

I recommend a cookie shaped pillow for Bedfordshire because the patterns often have braids moving backwards for short distances, and this is very awkward on a roller pillow. |

LH lace 475, pattern #9 from Barbara Underwood | I'm getting better at endings. |
These 2 weird samples were made when a student wanted to try a collar pattern. I saw that making a diagram or series of diagrams was going to be very much work. So I decided that enlarging the pattern to 300% and using colored pearl 5 might be easier. These were actually stretching my own competency at the time, so I needed to work a sample anyway to prove to myself that I could do it before trying to teach a student. Wherever you see a new color appearing out of nowhere, that is where I hung in some new threads. The long tails are pairs I cut out when the trail became too dense. My solution for 712 has room for improvement. | |

Cluny These are all from the LePuy school. revival era ClunyModern examplescharacteristics* | |||
Simple laces, include 1. connecting braid to foot 2. windmill join (crossing 2 braids) | |||
These all involve crossing single pairs through braids, or abstracting single pairs from a braid. | |||
These involve using the central pin more than once. At each successive pass you lift out the pin, make the new stitch, replace the pin, pushing the threads upwards. | |||
Creating a braid of more than 2 pairs. | |||
I designed the corner. | These demonstrate the Cluny method of connecting a braid to the cloth trail. Two braid pairs enter. One of them plus the old weaver, move into the departing braid (green lines). The other entering braid pair becomes the new weaver (blue). |
