SUMMARY- This is a collection of Norma's patterns put together by the Queensland Division of the Australian Lace Guild with Norma's kind permission. Judith Connors did the diagrams for it. Two of the simple edgings are used as a picture frame and horseshoe. All the patterns were converted to diagrams - and diagrams need no translation. Fresh samples were tatted of all the patterns and photographed on a black background. The Crown for a Hat was originally part of a set of patterns published in the Australian newspaper "The Age". If you want to know what the fuss is about but can't find Norma's 1952 book, I believe the Australian Lace Guild still have copies of this collection available.
