The above books emrege occasionally. I recently got Lavori at a lace day raffle. Keep checking lace dealers and online book sellers. Let people know you are looking for them. There are some new Cantu books coming out of Italy. I have a friend with a couple of them but I don't know the names. However, they are in Italian, and she ordered them directly from websites in Italy. There are also some videos (perhaps CD or DVD) also, which can be ordered from Italy. I was looking at them once and thought they were a bit spendy for my pocketbook but my friend loves the one she has. I suggest doing some internet searching. You might have to look up the Italian word for bobbin lace. Sorry I don't have the websites handy. Does anyone know the Italian terms that would be helpful? Alice in Oregon -- where lace has been set aside until our church Bazaar next week. I'm up to my ears in preparations. - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected]. For help, write to [email protected].
