Re: [lace] Which kind of a pillow
Gon - which pillow are you referring to? The blue one with bobbins on it, or the one covered in green - photo before the last? The green one is definitely a very narrow Maltese pillow, but it is covered with some green cloth which seems to be a bit like a bag, whereas the traditional Maltese pillow is usually just covered with brown paper and then 'dressed' while work is in progress. There are also various sizes of pillow. Personally, I prefer a thicker, wider pillow as the one in the picture is only suitable for working narrow pieces of lace.

[lace] Re: Book bindings
Just to add another opinion to the discussion on book bindings, I always prefer a paperback to a hardback for reasons of weight and space.

Re: [lace] lace bobbins?
That's really interesting Sue. Where did you find out about it and what would the items have been called?

OMG...I cannot say anything else! I am simply gobsmacked. I love needlework and I also love and treasure books, so if I lived in your house, I would never be able to do anything... What a wonderful treasure you have. Karen in Malta > > - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

[lace] Lace book library
I am curious - how large is your book collection Jeri? I believe I own one of the largest collections here in Malta, probably around 150 books mostly about lace, but also some tatting and embroidery (still cataloging them).
