Other crafts: lace making


Just look at this beauty. And it is all mine! Can you imagine? A friend of mine found this mint-condition lace making pillow in a second-hand store for...wait for it...100DKK! =18.50USD! = 13.40 EURO! = 11.50 GBP! = 56PLN! Crazy!

And then, when my lovely neighbour (a tailor), saw my new toy, she immediately handed me a '50s book with lace making instructions (and tones of really funny old-school images).

So now I only need to learn how to make lace...khm, khm...

But meanwhile, I'm collecting inspirations:
