lace,  pitsi, dentelle, kant, spitze, merletto, enjace ….  Lady Luck favoured Minna from Karuski and Kristen from knotted nest - carefully selected and packed lace bundles will be off to your way!

Zorro the Fox was so exited about our first giveaway that he wanted me to give some lace for everyone who played along, I kind of agreed with him since it was so fun to see you here and read the stories. .. so small lace bundles are awaiting you all !

Am currently dreaming of having all my linens nicely ironed and folded in some beautiful dark wooded cabin… since my linen collection is still quite moderate and that perfect cabin is still somewhere I just get inspired by these two lovely books of lace and linen. Tricia Foley’s Linens and lace is one and an other is The Book of Fine Linen by Francoise De Bonneville.

Book of the moment is this time actually a sneak preview for an up-coming book.

Perhaps the most beautiful lace-book of all times is due to January 2010. Three wonderful young Finnish women: Rinna Saramäki, Riina Honkimäki and Emmi Jormalainen are finalizing the photoshoots and compiling of this fairytale like book. Publication is by Wsoy.

Lace-book introduces you to different lace variations including instructions for lace making techniques. A bundle of wonderful ideas on how to use those lovely, delicate lace treasures found in attics and flea markets with new personal way.

The captivating images throughout lace book inspires you to enjoy beautiful details and to add a dash of lase to your own wardrobe as well.

Sneak preview images seen here are courtesy of makers and evoke feelings of nostalgia and zakkalicious excitement. Thank you Rinna !

Writers take you to the journey of making the book at their blog: a-lace-diary.blogspot.com
