For lace enthusiasts, there are many pieces of embroidery in this exhibit with the original lace on them. This provides an excellent opportunity to see the early plaited laces such as we are making for the jacket. I keep checking back on the Bard site for the schedule of accompanying programs, but so far they have not been posted. I hope I am not vioating any secret if I mention that there will be a symposium about the exhibit on January 23, 2008. I don't know about you, but January is not so far away for me, and I have marked my calendar appropriately. Devon This should be a very exciting exhibit.

This is an interesting set of mod-1800s stays on auction at Christies. There are also some blackwork coifs - finished and unfinished, and at least one blackwork forehead cloth. Looking at these thing makes me sigh and wish my bank account was larger. Ah well...
