Books Websites and Resources for Aemilia Ars

L'AEMILIA ARS DI ANTONILLA CANTELLI - this book not only has pictures of the exceptional work of her studio, it has the design diagrams on facing pages that you can copy for the toile. I do not speak or read Italian, but with a dictionary I can usually decode the one or two sentences that describe each step. Also, since the sentences are short, sometimes I can type them into Google Translate, which can help.

from Silvia The group "I merletti di Antonilla Cantelli" has just launched his website. In the future it will be expanded and perhaps translated into English.
http://www.aemilia-ars.com/

One of our members, Patricia Girolami, recommends this:
"The following books about Aemila Ars, written in Italian with English translations, would not be a bad start.
Un Bordo, Aemilia Ars. (A Border in aemilia ars.) Edition Il Punto Antico."
A lovely geometrical border, a good point to begin in aemilia ars. This border can easily be broken up and used in smaller units. There are explanations in photographs.

Aemilia Ars, Designs and Lace. An anastatic copy of an antique book, with a second book of explanations of the old designs. Also has explanations in photgraphs and an English translation. (Two small books in a slip case).

You can found two beautiful articles about Aemilia Ars in this new blog: http://italian-needlework.blogspot.com/
Aemila Ars, Dai vecchi disegni ai nuovi merletti. An exhibition catalogue with a little more. There are also original designs and explanations of the working.
(Aemili Ars, From old designs to new lace)

All books by Il Punto Antico, Bologna, Italy.

Quaderni di Aemilia Ars : Fiori. It is written in italian and wonderfully illustrated. (Recommended by Virginie Cornaglia.)

Should Amelia Ars always be white or should we be trying colour?

Comment by Virginie Cornaglia on July 22, 2011 at 10:30am: Hello,

I am a french new member interested by Aemilia Ars. I'd like to add a wonderful book :

Quaderni di Aemilia Ars : Fiori. It is written in italian (fortunately I speak italian) and wonderfully illustrated. I bought it in Italia but you can find it online.

Comment by Jarmila Krskova on March 21, 2011 at 7:15am: She accepted and now I see all these great pictures.. thanks.

Comment by Jarmila Krskova on March 20, 2011 at 1:10am: I tried it already, maybe she wasn't here yesterday.. Don't worry, I am patient ;-)) Really thanks a lot.

Comment by Lorelei Halley on March 19, 2011 at 5:01pm: Jarmila

It is possible that Patricia limited access to those photos to her friends. Try "friending" her. If she accepts, that will solve the problem. Follow the link in my note below, click on her name, and that will take you to her profile page. Look under her avatar icon. Click on ADD AS FRIEND.

Comment by Jarmila Krskova on March 19, 2011 at 4:12pm: Thanks Lorelei.. I am not sure if I can see it if Patricia isn't my friend, but I am going search for them again.
But Brona wrote me that we can meet and she will show me how to do this needle lace, so I hope I will know more soon ;-)
