While looking for information about lace conservators, I came across this on
a lace web site, and thought I would share it:

 

Bobbin lace is more common [than needlelace] and was used in linens and
lingerie. It is made on a pillow by twisting many threads around pins. This
is called bobbing, thus the name bobbin lace.

 

For your amusement and delectation.  ;-)

 

Best,

Carolyn
