Lacemaking in Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon. There are plenty of early 20thc postcards showing lacemakers, and the art was brought by missionaries. But it seems it's undergoing quite a revival. They were right in the path of the 2004 tsunami - well, watch the video. There's a lot on the web right now about Beeralu lace, just google it.
