Hello,
Yes, parapluie is for the rain and ombrelle for the sun in french.
Anne-Marie made all her umbrella. One by year. She find first the frame?
and adapt a pattern on it. She work 6 months by year on her project.
For "dentelle de papier", she make pergameno and others technics. She
try to make really paper lace. In the exhibition, she put paper
butterflys on her umbrella and everybody think that they are in bobbin lace.
She show me a card in pergameno and in the middle flowers in duchesse
lace. I had to pay many attention to see the difference. Funny and
wonderfull!!
Bonne nuit
Now, it's time to sleep in France

These are lovely, Sof. I purchased a lace umbrella (Battenburg) in
St. Lucia (West Indies) last month while on a cruise, only to leave it
in the taxi on the way to the airport in Ft. Lauderdale. I'd been
thinking about ordering a replacement from among some I found on the
internet, but now I'm inspired to make one myself with bobbin lace!
Also, I thought the French word for umbrella was "parapluie"....so is
that word for the sort used as protection from the rain and "ombrelle"
used for protection from the sun, I wonder?
Vicki in Maryland where "il pleut" way too much lately!

Hello everybody,
This is a new website of a french lacemaker and paper lace? (I don't
know the word in english). I was with her in a manifestation last week.
