Dear Lacemakers,

The above quotation refers to Flanders lace.

In the interest of accuracy, I think it important to note that the Binche 
research reflected in "Lace Magazine International" was done over a lifetime - by 
Berthilde Vandoren, mother of the editor - Lieve Jerger, and the text of each 
article cited was written by either mother or daughter.  In the articles 
referenced in my reply, Michael Giusiana was mentioned in connection with the 
diagrams and pricking in issue #46, 1998.

It is possible Mr. Giusiana has written about Witches' Work, but I did not 
find it in the editions from which I gave details, and I prefer to be quoted as 
saying texts were written by Mme. Vandoren and Lieve Jerger.  Mr. Giusiana is 
credited elsewhere in these magazines as "our Master Pattern Curator at LMi".

In the final edition of LMi (#56), Lieve Jerger wrote a wonderful tribute to 
her mother.  How nice it would be if all our "great lace experts" could be 
acknowledged in such a comprehensive and loving way.
