Puncetto valsesiano
Greetings,I am looking for a book on this italian needlelace. I was wondering if any member of this group had ever seen one. There are a few pages in the Anchor needlework book but I am really interested in learning the basic technique and finding some patterns. Thank you for any help you might be able to offer me.Bro.
