My book Laces of Mária Tuhárská from Senohrad focuses on laces from bonnets from around Senohrad, which have survived in sample books and literature and are marked as laces of Mária Tuhárská from Senohrad. In the introduction, the book deals with a short history of the region, lace and embroidery from Hont.

The basic part of the publication are redrawn lace patterns (40 patterns) with basic procedures illustrated. The patterns are in the original width of 1.5 - 2 cm, but also enlarged for thicker threads. Selected patterns are also drawn in circular and square versions. The book is complemented by some drawings of embroidery that were on the caps and photos and descriptions of caps and other costume parts. At the end are examples of my works on the subject of lace from Senohrad and links to other publications.

SK: Spustili sme novú verziu našich stránok. Okrem grafického vzhľadu bola pridaná možnosť prepnúť sa do anglickej verzie našich stránok. Bohužiaľ, nie je možné preložiť všetky výrazy a názvy, pretože sú to názvy miest a obcí alebo termíny používané v čipkársve, pričom niektoré sú unikátne či archaické.

EN: We have launched a new version of our site. In addition to the graphic appearance, the option to switch to the English version of our pages has been added. Unfortunately, it is not possible to translate all terms and names because they are names of towns and villages or terms used in lacemaking, some of which are unique or archaic.

We have added to our offer of patterns for purchase, patterns created on the basis of lace motifs from village Špania Dolina. You can choose from the offer on the website with patterns in the section "Špaňodolinská čipka".
