Lenore:
And I have the book Colour and Texture in Needlelace by Ros Hills. Pub
in 1987.
The chapters are: How needlelace is traditionally made; The Sampler;
Colour Theories; Observing your surroundings; Simple design ideas;
preparing designs for lace; Free stitchery and textural effects; Tassels
and beads; Dyeing; Conclusion- carrying on a great traditional craft.
This is a cool book! There are a few patterns you can work, but the
focus is taking needlelace in any direction you want! I got mine used at
a lace day.
Try something of your own design. It is great fun!

PS: I have seen the Nenia books. All are excellent. Preview. Each is
very different. You might want to try the library or somewhere to
actually look in the books to see which you would prefer.
