Hello ladies, I'm looking for some faggotting, now those of you who do not sew, may think this strange, it is insert lace used in heirloom and smocked dressmaking. I'm sure Ceinwen may be able to point me in the direction of some. I have seen it mostly on the American sites, but thought I'd try UK first. thanks Doris

I think Ceinwen is definitely your lady, although I think it might be called Flat Lace these days. You tried googling it?

sometimes call entredeux or insertion I think. It's hard to find here considering it is mostly made in Switzerland or here. I do know of one place in Nottingham but you have to buy a whole card of it, there are a few bits on ebay. I use Marthapullen.com in US to buy from as she has a good range and she gets it from Europe!!!!!
