Have you looked at the Arachne archives?  There have been some discussions 
of Queyras lace in the past, which may be of use to you:

Hello Sylvie,

I haven’t been to Queyras but the lace in Val Varaita just across the border in 
Italy is very similar. I went to Val Varaita a few years back and have 
something about it on my website at   
http://www.jeanleader.net/articles/index.html

They’re both freehand laces worked with very few pins - I have a couple of 
samples from Val Varaita and instructions for a few patterns.

Re: [lace] Lace Guild Museum exhibit at the NEC Birmingham

[Jeriames]

A very professionally presented exhibition.  Makes me proud to be  
associated with lace.  Gwynedd is quite correct, but you will note that the  
news 
lady uses "crochet" when actually describing a very fine lace - a  lace that 
would never answer to that term.  Language!  
 
Be sure this is not lost in the shuffle of your e-mails (I never received  
the first post, from Jane Read):

looking at  it.  What a treat.

Hello,
I'm wondering if some of the lace makers are familiar with or make Queyras
lace.

Hello Jane and everyone

Thank you for the link!
Nice visuals and interview, will forgive the presenter for saying "tiny 
crochets..."

Re: [lace] Ithaca lace event

[lynrbailey]

Dear Arlene,
The best harbinger of Finger Lakes Lace Guild Ithaca Lace Day information is 
the upper left corner of Holly Van Sciver's home page.  It should be coming out 
soon.  I go to her website much more frequently than I do to FLLG's.  

Lyn from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA, where spring is beginning.  We arrived 
home from Arizona, hot and dry, yesterday. 

"My email sends out an automatic  message. Arachne members,
please ignore it. I read your emails."

I get an annual request for a mailing for the lace group I belong to, and
