Thanks, Jenny ! These books are fun! I actually had a few emails with the author a couple of years ago and encouraged her to delve into bobbin lace in one of her books. She wrote back that she generally wrote about skills with which she was familiar and didn't think she had the time to learn enough about lacemaking to include it in one of her stories. One of her books had a plot which involved a bit of handmade lace... the killer was the only one in the area who knew anything about lacemaking!! sigh...
I can just imagine the pleasure of reading about the group gathering at the shop and making lace... and solving a mystery while they sort out the puzzles on their pillows!!
