I saw a beautiful Peacock pattern on facebook that I would love to know
where the pattern came from. It was for an edging and quite elaborate in
design. Beautiful. Some much lace so little time but the seeing of said lace
makes my eyes very happy.

For a tassel on a book mark, I found that unwinding the bobbins for 6-8"
and just leaving them hanging overnight (hanging off the edge of the
pillow) was sufficient to straighten the thread nicely. The weight of
the bobbins does all the work for you.
Marianne asked about books. I recently obtained this one from the
Boekhandel in Bruges
Verborgene Spitzen aus dem Museum Kunstpalast
Heike Beckers-Hartl, Maria Kilian, Claudia Schuster
27.50 euros
It was reviewed by Jane Partridge in the October 2014 issue of Lace (vol
156).
I think the lace is wonderful. Would love to make a piece or three!
In the same issue was a review by Hilary Davies of
Bobijntje 5
Fumie Kanai
Kantcentrum VZW ISBN 978-4-902348-05-7
34 Euros
This also looks to have some beautiful Flanders and Binche patterns, but
I've not yet seen the book myself.
The Lace Guild reviews lots of books, so worth browsing back issues for
ideas.
So many beautiful patterns - so little time.
Best wishes,
Jane
