I, too, have Kaethe Kliot's book Bobbin Lace: Form by the Twisting of Cords.   
copyright 1973.  The book describes some useful tape lace techniques, in 
addition to several unusual torchon grounds.  I am curious about the 
illustrations showing four " 7-inch-high tapestries" (two of human figures 
against various grounds, two of birds)which the author calls "design, pattern 
and execution by Gertrude Biederman".  At least two of these are variations of 
Dagobert Peche designs-the grounds are changed, also some details, but they are 
basically Dagobert Peche (of the Vienna Workshop) designs.  Does anyone have 
any other information to offer about this apparent discrepancy?  Is there a 
book of Biederman patterns?
