When the author set out to develop a new lace technique she listed the use of colour, a small number of pairs, ease and flexibility of working in her wish-list. What emerged was this three-dimensional technique, drawing strongly on Rosaline, Rococo and Duchesse, which enables most lacemakers to produce striking results, easily and quickly. Most of the book is devoted to the technique and basic components - flowers, leaves, stems, butterfly, etc -which are expained to the last detail with many step-by-step diagrams and there is an appendix which provides a useful summary of the basic skills. The pattern section presents 17 designs - for brooches, a mat edging and flower arrangements of various sizes - each with pricking, colour photograph and working notes, all of which are both attractive and practical.
