At the Oidfa congress in Groningen I bought a book about Queyras lace written by Clair Le Goaziou. In this she describes the pillows, bobbins and patterns from the different valleys and villages in Queyras and direct environment. In this region a freehand lace is made, so without a prikking. The book includes also a few patterns, so you can try it yourselves. I didn't read it until now, because it is written in French. I need therefore a good and quiet moment to concentrate on reading it. Happy lacing, Gon Homburg in a warm and sunny Amsterdam, the Netherlands [EMAIL PROTECTED]@kloskant.info website: www.kloskant.info - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
