Curious where others have bough their broderie Anglaise lace, if you ever have. I have found some but I am not 100% thrilled by it. I would hate to commit just because I don't know of another source.
Same with the Cambric. Does that go by any other name? My goggle-fu is not working for it. I have only found a type of china and a dust cover.... not exactly what I think of when I am thinking fine lingerie. Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I don't think it's possible to get cambric anymore, at least not without a big price tag. Lawn would be the nearest cotton weave, or a very good hanky linen.

I'm really fussy about broderie anglais. It used to be much better quality than what's mostly available now. I've had some luck getting vintage stuff on ebay
