Hi Julie It looks like Point de Gaze, but not detailed enough to be certain that it’s all needle lace with no bobbin fillings to make it mixed Brussels. A very nice piece of lace. Brenda > > Sorry, here is the photo of the lace. > > http://tinyurl.com/whatlaceisthis > Brenda in Allhallows

Hi Carol I don't suppose that this is going to be much help to your friend but I'm sure that there is a pattern for a windmill in one of Veronica Sorensen's books. Definitely not the Bruges flower lace, but one of the others, I can't remember which and am at work at the moment so can't check.

I have actually seen a bobbin lace pattern for a lighthouse, but cannot remember where or when. Possibly in a German publication or pattern. However, if you search for lace light house, some pictures of crocheted ones come up, and you may be able to convert these simple designs to a lace pattern

To help all in the future I found one in the Modern Lace designs book by Veronica Sorenson. It is a free standing model but might lend itself to reduction or adaption if needed. Sue T Dorset UK I have actually seen a bobbin lace pattern for a lighthouse, but cannot remember where or when.

Good luck with your Incy Wincy Spider, Nancy Support pins are pins set back a little way from the first row of stitches - you hang the pairs on support pins while you work the first pinhole(s) using those pairs, then take the support pins out and tension gently to get the threads neatly round
