That is very unusual. Usually we Maltese work a flower motif where the
tallies would be crossed in the centre. It would be more likely to have a

Devon, Thank you for correcting this. I am away from my books at the

the early 1800s, when there is no question they were made. Another sample

Lorelei,
I agree completely. I have never read anywhere that the lace made in
Buckingham in 1750 was point ground. What made me pause on this article was
that Mr. Heathcoat supposedly learned to make lace from the Buckingham lace
makers around 1753 and imitated the point ground on his Loughborough
makers in Buckingham made point
ground lace in 1753. It would be great to ascertain this from other
sources. Mr Heathcoat's fist successful lace machine making bobbin net was
set up in 1809.
