Description
Schwalm Needlelace
Luzine Happel
Easily embroidered edge decorations described in great detail and illustrated with step-by-step instructions. The booklet includes many needlelace edgings from different centuries, including some rare examples. By combining single elements of the edgings many more needlelace patterns can be established. Unfortunately, many embroiderers shy away from working needlelace – the edgings are really very easy to embroider if one has good instructions at hand.
