Dear Chris,

There is a tape lace sailing boat in Pamela Nottingham's book - Bobbin Lace
Making (ISBN 0713441321) on page 30.

 Hello Everyone,
 Does anyone have a bobbin lace pattern of a sailboat ?   I
 would greatly
 appreciate the source and how to purchase/obtain the pattern.
 It will be used
 as a raffle item for a local children's hospital next year.
 The group doing
 the raffle contains several sailing groups that attend the
 raffle.  Thank you.

There was also a pattern of a sailboat under a rainbow with was given as a  
free internet pattern, via arachne, many years ago now.  It was in the  
days before we had broadband access and it was big files and took agaes to  
download.  I was able to use the pattern itself, but a lot of the  other files 
that were with it were large unrecognised format to my computer -  very 
frustrating after all the download time.  A few years ago,  I adapted it to a 
circle for a student to make in a big ring  to hang in her window.  It's made 
mostly in white thread,  with colours used for the rainbow, boat sails and 
pennant.
 
If anyone else remembers this pattern, knows if it is still  available, and 
has a link, I for one would like to try downloading it  again.  I'm far 
more computer literate these days and might be able to  access the other files. 
 It originated in Europe - Germany? Netherlands?  Possibly Sweden?

Hi Chris,

There are a few nice sail boats in Eeva Liisa Kortelahti's book Let's make
bobbin lace, ISBN 951-99922-3-5, reprinted in 1995.

The boats are inserted in a picture... I mean: it is not an isolated boat,
but  it also has a sea and a sky, making a square motive.

I hope I have made myself understood.

I bought my book directly to the author. But I suppose it is available in
some lace material shops...

Good luck.
