Traditional Bedfordshire Lace by Barbara M Underwood

Bedfordshire lace, its history, and its fine and varied designs [particularly those of Thomas Lester and his sons, lace-dealers in Bedford for nearly a century] have attracted growing interest and many new practitioners in recent years. One attraction of the Bedfordshire technique is its flexibility, which offers the lace-maker a certain freedom in deciding the method of working.
'In Barbara Underwood's book we have the instruction manual we need to master such a complex lace.. beautifully photographed in great detail... Working instructions are lucid and the diagrams clear and helpful. It is so good I would like to write much more...' -- Margaret Tite * Lace No 52 Edition *
Barbara Underwood has an established reputation as a teacher, lace-maker and designer. She has made a special study of the fine traditional laces fo the English East Midlands and has played a leading role in teaching and promoting them.
