This volume contains charts and instructions for more than 40 sprang lace motifs found in the collection. The first of a series, this volume addresses basic motifs, lacy grids, diamond shapes, zig-zags, flowers and more. There is very little overlap with other books of sprang lace by Carol James.
The book includes a forward by Ria Cooreman, textile curator at the museum. In the forward she recounts the story of this nnjcollection, how it came into the hands of the Art and History Museum.
Printing of this book is planned for early June 2023. It will be available through her website as a physical book and also through Taprootvideo as a physical book or as a down-load-able PDF. The price will be $25.
The book is so close to printing that Carol now offers the book for pre-sale. Order the book now for $20, and receive it hot-off-the-press next month.
