You were also living in a lacemaking area, whereas I wasn't. So it may have been the location rather than the timing. I originally come from the northwest, but was living near Greenwich, London when I went to classes. Neither of which has a tradition of lacemaking to affect the naming of the lace

I began bobbin lace in 1977 while living in England and heard many times
that in the "old times" it was known as pillow lace and bone lace.

So, Sue I heard it in England but before you began lacemaking.

Happy Lacemaking,
