Those who are interested in Cantu' and Milanese lace might like to see the photos at the Fiore e Tombolo site <http://fioretombolo.ning.com/>. This is a social networking site for lacemakers. You get your own page, a blog, can post photos, make "friends", exchange "comments" and so on, much like Facebook. (When I told a work colleague about it, he immediately dubbed it "Lacebook".) There is also a discussion forum.
The site is in Italian, but if you click on Fotografie you can enjoy some wonderful eye candy. The Video page has teaching videos, some quite good indeed. The work in the photos ranges from traditional to modern and innovative, and has been executed by lacemakers from beginners to grand masters. Enjoy! I certainly do.
