As lace patterns pubished in books and magazines or sold as individual patterns are meant to be made and the design admired, then I can see no problem putting photos of the finished items on web sites, or displaying them elsewhere with the source of the pattern stated. In fact I'm sure the designer would be delighted to have their work made known.
As for Joan's question about raising money for a care home, instructions for cards, etc often say that you can produce a certain number for your own use or for sale. I think this is particularly true of rubber stamps (is that really a craft?) think what you plan would definitely be a breach of copyright, but for a fund-raising intention like this, I'd contact the author through the book's publisher and ask if he/she would agree to what you want to do or if he/she has any other suggestions for using her work to raise money and what conditions he/she would impose.
