Please will you help try to identify this lace for a friend of mine from 
another list?

I wish I had more time to learn about laces.  But it I had time to stop 
and learn that, I would have to stop working on another project.


If you post messages to the list, or to me, I will pass them on to Penny 
- they will be anonymous unless you specifically tell me it will be 
alright to pass on your name, and/or e-mail address.


Many thanks,
Linda Walton,
(in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, U.K.).

Hello Linda

Looks like Irish crochet to me.
It's a form of crochet with lots of padding and raised work done to 
imitate Venetian Gros Point needle lace.
