Hi there, oh knowledgeable ones. I had the privilege to go to Anchorage for a lace class way back in, I think, 1998. I did Bruges but I seem to remember that a few people were learning lutec (?) lace. I think it was a bobbin lace that made use of padding techniques from some needle laces. I have a mental picture (if I could do those, a topic for a future post) of them laying loads of short pieces of thread where they wanted it thicker. Have I totally confused you all yet? Anyway, I don't remember ever hearing of this lace since then. Did I completely make up this memory or is there such a lace? If the latter then was it just a short term 'fad' or does it have any history?
