Weronica,

Recently, you inquired about covering books with lace.

On the last page of the November/December 2005 issue of PieceWork (knitted 
dolls on cover) there is a photo of two blank books that have been covered with 
lace.  The ones shown were made with part of an antique embroidered linen 
guest towel and a crocheted doily (both stronger than much of the lace we 
usually 
make with bobbins).  You might like the idea of attaching a ribbon bookmark to 
the inside of the back cover, perhaps with lace attached to the ribbon.

You can go to a store like Barnes & Noble or Borders and look at the picture 
and information, without having to buy the $6 magazine.  It will be with the 
needlework magazines.  I suggest you wait another week, because sometimes 
subscribers get magazines before they are distributed to stores.

Since you are from Poland, I do recommend you go to the Web and print the 
directions for a Snutki Doily - some time in the future, you may want to try 
this 
needle technique.  (www.interweave.com/rd/pwprojects)

EVeryone:  There are a lot of free instructions at this site, and some of you 
have asked for patterns that are free.  Take a look, and start a notebook of 
instructions you like.
