Hi All, A belated response here <G>. I also thought we were discussing NL filling stitches. Lori has most of the NL tape lace books listed. I think she doesn't have the French book "Le Luxeuil" yet but that's another great tape lace book. Also, as was already mentioned, de Dillmont has a great section under "Needlelace". I have just "rediscovered" that myself. There was a great article in the IOLI Bulletin a while ago suggesting people look again at the books they already have - a *great* idea!
Anyway, the NL tape lace books with the most stitches (that I have found) are: "Battenberg and Other Tape Laces" (Dover reprint), "The Technique of Tape Lace" and "The Technique of Branscombe Point Lace" both from Batsford, and two from Lacis "Needle Laces - Battenberg, Point & Reticella" and "Battenberg and Point Lace Book". Oops, almost forgot Mrs. Treadwin and "Antique Point - Honiton Lace" which also includes a lot of NL stitches. My interest is in the tape laces so I don't know what the straight NL books have to offer. And I think Sulochona mentioned "Needle Lace and Needle Weaving" by Nordfors. Of course they all have a few stitches that the other books don't have <VBG>. Jane in Vermont, USA keeping cool in the air conditioning after watching a wonderful 4th of July parade this morning!
