This is a stunning reproduction on CD in PDF format of TWO vintage early 1900
Torchon Lace (Pillow Lace) Instruction Books.
We combined Part One (1904) and Part Two (!909) because together they contain a wealth of instructions.

An excellent place to study the skills of this ancient art, to make beautiful items for yourself, or to give as heirloom gifts.
If you want to learn how to make Pillow Lace, or improve your existing skill, this book will provide the highest quality of instruction, example and inspiration.

Original books from this era are scarce, highly collectable and expensive.
These TWO books contains patterns and instructions for the items and projects listed below.
