Slovenian Bobbin Lace Maker: Anna Žakelj Jesenko

This 12-minute video has excellent photography, enjoyable Slovenian music, a very informative narrative explaining Slovenian bobbin lace, and best of all, Anna Jesenko presenting her own story as the “Slovenian bobbin lace lady.” The video was funded by the Slovenian American Heritage Foundation, the Ohio Arts Council and the Slovenian American National Art Guild. This video would never have been made if it had not been for the work of Frances Babic. She was aided in this project by Doris Sadar, a pioneer member of the Slovenian American National Art Guild, Anna Jesenko's daughters Anna and Ruth, and many others. This video was produced in Cleveland, Ohio in 1990. For a copy of the accompanying pamphlet, contact John Zakelj at [e-mail]
