The Cake Buffet
This delicious cake
buffet was first exhibited during the international convention of
OIDFA in Gent (Aug. 1998). The size of the cakes and confectionary are
normal size.
All the designs
used for the buffet are my own. I realized about 1/3rd of the
bobbin myself and the rest and the accesories have been made by
14 members of the Lace-club "De Waaier".
The creation of
this buffet took 2 years.

The Dutch lace-organisation LOKK published a book "Kant met een zilveren randje" with pictures of this buffet but unfortunatly they "forgot" to mention me as the designer.
