No, you aren't having senior moment. The text does specify bobbin
lace, but
the two pictures are needlelace. Only the middle one is bobbin lace.
Ah
well, we can't expect tourism promoters to be lace experts (but it
would be
nice).
What's *really* weird is that the school never taught/made needle lace;
only bobbin. Over the years, it had gone through many changes, expanded
to other subjects (including embroidery), dropping some others
(including bobbin lace) but, so far as I know, it never made needle
lace or, at least, not of the type pictured. So, the question arises:
just where did they get those pieces?
