A 1920 pattern book of eight pillow (bobbin) lace designs for church use, by M. E. W. Milroy. The patterns are the Katapwa, Kilbirnie, St. Patrick, Ladyland, St. Andrew, St. Cross, St. David and St. George, intended for chalice veils, a credence table cloth and fair linen cloths. Each has a materials list (bobbin counts, Knox's Falcon linen thread), a photograph, pricking diagrams and numbered step-by-step instructions in cloth stitch, double stitch, ground stitch, plaits and Honiton-style borders. The introduction gives practical advice and prices for prickings and finished lace.
