A piece of needlelace I found two days ago from a local charity shop for 50 p. I love needlelace and would like to have the patience to make such delicate works of art. It is my second find of this type of craft, I got one years ago which I used to customise a t-shirt. I am getting ideas like trying my hand at making it with thicker thread or maybe using colour. A bit of research got me to this piece which is almost identical to mine. It is Venetian Needle lace. I even managed to find a page with contemporary motives and some lovely old pieces from a similar lace coming from Bologna. The peacock and the womans head would make interesting brooches.

Hojas de encaje - Lace Leaves
Recien encontradas en la tienda de segunda mano a 50 peniques. Creo que son de encaje a la aguja, algo que me encanta. Me pregunto cuanto se tarda en hacer este tapete con un hilo tan fino. Es una fuente de inspiracion , podrian hacerse piezas parecidas con hilo mas grueso. Es la segunda muestra de este tipo que tengo, la otra ya aparecio aqui hace años. Hice una busqueda y encontre una muestra identica , se trata de Encaje de Venecia. Aqui tienen motivos contemporaneos . Otro muy parecido a este es el encaje de Boloña, aqui tienen unos motivos antiguos, un pavo real y una cabeza de mujer quedarian bien como broches.

Te echaba de menos...
