I have that book too.  I will show it to my student and see if she wants to
buy a copy of it.


Thanks for reminding me about it.

Yes I bought Jeans book of bookmarks they have Thistles,Roses,Daffodils and
Shamrocks?  I made the Rose one for my sisters birthday haven't got round to
making the others yet.  They are all very pretty and made using Bedfordshire
techniques.  I don't think they are for the absolute beginner but Jeans
General instructions are really good .

Jean Leader's Book, A Thistle, A Rose and a Daffodil also has a pattern in it 
for a shamrock bookmark. It's not a truly Irish design, but if shamrocks aren't 
Irish I don't know what is.  Holly sells it for 19.95.

Lorri: I’m wondering if maybe your student means a knotwork “Celtic” pattern, 
since that what we see associated with Ireland so often, rather than a BL 
pattern that was traditionally made in Ireland.

This

would adapt to a braid lace.

Some years ago Jean Leader published a set of UK national motifs which
included a shamrock.  OOP on Jeans website
https://www.jeanleader.net/publications/thistlemotifs.html

but it looks as though Barbara Fay still has it in stock.

or maybe adapt something like this
http://clipartbarn.com/celtic-knot-clipart_30327/

to make a braid lace design.

[lace] Irish Lace Pattern

2018-03-07 Thread Lorri Ferguson
I have a student that would like a bobbin lace pattern for a bookmark that is
a typical 'Irish pattern'.

I know BL was not a prevalent as other laces, but the student wants a BL
pattern.  If there is not a bookmark pattern then an edging or insertion
pattern would do as we can create a beginning and end.


Thanks in advance for any help you can give us.
