Anyone else find the Dritz Bobbin Lace Making Lap
Pillow on eBay? It's a Pressing (or Dressmaker's) Ham
for sewing. I told the seller, but there's no change
or note on the auction. No bids, either. G
Isn't it interesting how so many things get labeled
lacemaking tools?
Alice in Oregon ...
Yeah, I saw that one and sailed right on by it. If you don't know what
something is, it was obviously used way back when to make lace LOL

Hi Alice,
Actually, when I took Venetian needlelace with Irma Osterman, she suggested
we use a Dritz tailor's ham to attach the pattern to and as a working
surface. Personally, my tastes run to beautiful and elaborate equipment, and
it
seemed a little common place to me. But it did work
