Lace, Its Origin and History
*fe/m/e/Z. Ge/akrtfarp SSreniano 's 7?ew 2/or/c 1904 Copyrighted, 1904, BY Samuel L. Goldenberg. — Art library "I have here only a nosegay of culled flowers, and have brought nothing of my own but the thread that ties them together." Montaigne. HE task of the author of this work has not been an attempt to brush the dust of ages from the early history of lace in the •^ hope of contributing to the world's store of knowledge on the subject. His purpose, rather, has been to present to those whose rela- tion to lace is primarily a commercial one a compendium that may, perchance, in times of doubt, serve as a practical guide. Though this plan has been adhered to as closely as possible, the history of lace is so interwoven with life's comedies and tragedies, extending back over five centuries, that there must be, here and there in the following pages, a reminiscent tinge of this association. Lace is, in fact, so indelibly associated with the chalets perched high on mountain tops, with little cottages in the valleys of the Appenines and Pyrenees, with sequestered convents in provincial France, with the raiment of men and women whose names loom large in the history of the world, and the futile as well as the successful efforts of inventors to relieve tired eyes and weary fingers, that, no matter how one attempts to treat the subject, it must be colored now and again with the hues of many peoples of many periods. The author, in avowing his purpose to give this work a practical cast, does not wish to be understood as minimizing the importance of any of the standard works compiled by those whose years of study and research among ancient volumes and musty manuscripts in many tongues have been a labor of love. -

Bobbin Lace 101 Introduction Welcome to Bobbin Lacemaking! Bobbin Lace Is an Art Form That Originated in 15Th Cen- Tury Europe
Bobbin Lace 101 Introduction Welcome to bobbin lacemaking! Bobbin lace is an art form that originated in 15th cen- tury Europe. Today, hobbyists around the world continue the tradition. Bobbin lace is a type of off-loom weaving. We use bobbins to manipulate the thread and to keep ten- sion on the work. As it is made, the lace is secured to a pillow with pins to provide structure and support. There are many different styles of bobbin lace with widely dif- fering appearances. Today we will begin to learn Torchon lacemaking. Torchon is a coarse, strong, continuous, grounded lace characterized by geometric patterns, and it is Lacemaking beaver from The Hunting of the Snark usually worked on a 45° grid. It was used by the middle class for edgings and insertions.

Be Unique Within Europe
BE UNIQUE WITHIN EUROPE Virumaa Art & Craft Society G rundtvig. Practical learning for adults Grundtvig. Practical learning for adults Launched in 2000, Grundtvig aims to provide adults with more ways to improve their knowledge and skills, facilitate their personal development and boost their employment prospects. It also helps to tackle problems associated with Europe’s ageing population. It covers not only teachers, trainers, staff and organisations working in the sector, but also learners in adult education. These include relevant associations, counselling organisations, information services, policy-making bodies and others such as NGOs, enterprises, voluntary groups and research centres. The programme funds a range of activities, including particularly those supporting adult learning staff to travel abroad for learning experiences, through exchanges and various other professional experiences. Other larger scale initiatives involve, for instance, networking and partnerships between organisations in different countries. The specific aims of the Grundtvig programme are to: increase the number of people in adult education to 25 000 by 2013, and improve the quality of their experience, whether at home or abroad improve conditions for mobility so that at least 7000 people per year by 2013 can benefit from adult education abroad improve the quality and amount of co-operation between adult education organisations develop innovative adult education and management practices, and encourage widespread implementation ensure that people on the margins of society have access to adult education, especially older people and those who left education without basic qualifications support innovative ICT-based educational content, services and practices 2 B e Unique Within Europe.
