Dear Sally, Do you belong to any local lace guild? Do they have a lending library, or helpful local members???? It is amazing that you cannot find information. Have you looked at the IOLI website's library listings? Books are available for borrowing, which is one of the valuable benefits of membership. Many have donated books (and videos), making it easy for American lacemakers to study in the comfort of their homes. http://www.internationalorganizationoflace.org/Library/library.html Select the Bobbin Lace option.

Hello all, In 2 months I will be demonstrating bobbin lace at a Celtic Festival. Most of the festival involves music and dance, but the organizers wanted some fiber arts too, so here I go. I'd like to find some information about bobbin lace specifically in the Celtic nations (officially: Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Isle of Man, Brittany [northwest corner of France], and Cornwall, and some lists also include Galicia in northern Spain). Can someone recommend a book or other source of such information? All I've found online is about Ireland, and not very much of that.
