Disegnare merletti come in uso a Cantù

Seminario di 13 ore

Corte San Rocco via Matteotti, 39

Il seminario, attraverso metodologie, tecniche e pratiche, permette di interpretare idee per sviluppare merletti a fuselli.
Con le metodologie in uso nel Canturino si insegneranno le spuntature classiche e alcune per i punti di fondo; si potrà quindi passare all'esecuzione di alcune idee prodotte da ciascuno, trasformandole in cartine concretamene traducibili in seguito in merletto.

Il corso si terrà al raggiungimento di un minimo di iscritti.

    BACKGROUND STITCH: PUNTO RAGNO ("SPIDER STITCH")
    3-hour course

    Grrrr, spiders...plenty of spiders chasing each other in neat rows or scattered throughout the continuous thread lace.
    But when you have learnt the right steps, it is fun to make one after another. And then, if you look carefully, they do not resemble spiders anymore, but rather many little snowflakes.
    One of the most used lace background stitches, gleaned from the common heritage of local culture, will be taught during the workshop. Participants will be given the twine pattern and a small pricking for the realisation of a lace sample.

    Teacher: Thessy Schoenholzer Nichols. Assistant: Mrs Mariarita Colombo

    Prerequisites: a love of decoration (note: no need to be graphic artists or designers).

    This course, through the application of dynamic, technical and practical methodologies, allows participants to give free rein to their creativity.
    It will be organized in two phases: after developing numerous sketches, the student will proceed to execute his/her best idea, transforming it into a “pattern” that could actually be transformed into lace. Each student will make many drafts which might become the basis for a lace design.

    Besides the decorative aspect, ample space will be reserved for the technical/operational phase concerning the preparation of “patterns” which are the classic aid for the craft of bobbin lacemaking in Cantù. The function of “patterns” is to provide hints from which the lace maker can get new inspiration for her activity; they also help the lace maker to acquire a wider knowledge of the great variety of stitches that can be realized from a pattern and will provide the students with a basis from which they can start to improve their practical skills.

    The course will be held if a minimum number of enrollments is reached. It has been designed for an optimum of ten participants.

    For more information on cost and availability, please send an e-mail to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. quoting “Lace design course” as subject.

    After the pre-enrollment (which is not binding to the participation in the course) all participants will be informed about services offered, available materials and actual cost of enrollment.

    INFO FOR THE NON RESIDENTS
    Cantù is a municipality of Brianza, an area where the tradition of bobbin lace is an important part of the local heritage and is cultivated by expert lace makers with an eye to the preservation of the past and a great enthusiasm for the novelties of contemporary design.
    The 12th International Lace Biennial might be an opportunity to spend a few pleasant days in the industrious Brianza discovering a craft that lives on in time overcoming with style the changing fashions.
    In order to facilitate the participation of people who live outside the territory of Cantù (coming from abroad or from distant places), the Committee has activated a particularly favourable convention with a new guest-rooms facility that will be opened in the month of June.
    Our guests will have at their disposal newly restored bedrooms with bathrooms and a shared kitchen area for the two weeks of the Biennial. And what’s more, you might take advantage of the vicinity of the Expo or of the nearby conspicuous natural and architectural beauties through the guided tours that the Committee will organize in accordance with your needs.
    We are sure that our event will be of interest for you and look forward to your response about our courses and accommodations. Our best regards to you.

    APPROACHING THE ROSALINE LACE

    First notions for the realization of bobbin laces with the “Rosaline” stitch used in Cantù. The “Rosaline” stitch is inspired to the stitch of the same name which was widely used in laces produced in Belgium in the last decades of the XIX century which, in its turn, was inspired to the needle laces produced in Venice throughout the XVIII century. The participants will make samples and a simple artifact. As an aid to the course a course pack will be provided covering the subjects that will be taught.
