How about this for a quaint definition of lace-making:
"Of particularly beauty is the bobbin lace. From a sketch on a cardboard
placed on a bench with a cushion and on which pins are placed (which hold
the knots which make the lace), the lace-makers manage skilfully the bobbins
- little cylinders to hold the string".
Found on a web site about Tavira, Portugal. My step sister is getting
married near there in September and I was looking up accommodation
possibilities when I came across it. Still trying to decide whether to go.
