Just a quick post I am putting out for my Handcraft section, I have seen a few people searching for this information in my stats, so to make it easy for you….If you are looking for bobbin lace supplies in the Australia and NZ region then I suggest you try:
Josco Lace Supplies in NSW, Australia
Josco is where you can get lots of books, bobbins and hardest to find of all, the pillows in a range of sizes and options. Lovely lady who I bought my square bobbins and pillow from, and will go back to when I am ready for a larger pillow 🙂
Hands Craft Shop in CHCH, NZ
An awesome craft shop with all kinds of craft goodies but they have some basic bobbin lace supplies – bobbins and crochet threads and some accessories. Do not have pillows.
And for those wondering what the hell Bobbin Lace is, here is a beginner video I found on You Tube which shows you really nicely 🙂
Learning to See Light 
Would love to see a lot more on Bobbin laceThank you so much for putting time & effort into posts like this, would love more lace supplies in the country.
Do you know if there are bobbin lace suppliers near to Dundas NSW?
Sorry Dorothy I only deal with Josco, Im sure if you googled for lace suppliers you might find some in NSW.
That was really cool. The tutorial was very well done and easy to follow. Thanks for sharing the link with me. Hope you are relaxing now that your test is over 🙂
I didnt make the video, I should reference that on the post!
It still gave me a good explanation of Bobbin Lace 🙂
Yes it’s quite cool. And not as difficult to do as you think, mostly you need to be good with fiddly things and a bit OCD 😋
I’m already prone to OCD, so I would have that in my favor 🙂
can I get my bobbin lace pillow with the roller and ratchet repaired in aust.
I don’t know, you will have to contact the supplier you got it from – I assume you sourced it in Aussie?
Great ¡V I should definitely pronounce, impressed with your website. I had no trouble navigating through all tabs as well as related info ended up being truly simple to do to access. I recently found what I hoped for before you know it in the least. Quite unusual. Is likely to appreciate it for those who add forums or something, web site theme . a tones way for your client to communicate. Nice task..
I realise this was seven years ago, but whoever you are you just saved what remains of my sanity. Trying to find specialty craft supplies in New Zealand is a nightmare, especially right now. And then I run across this and even seven years later Hand Crafts still (!) stock lace bobbins. I’ve been searching on and off for weeks and for some reason their site never showed up? THANK YOU SO MUCH
