I was in Bennington, VT last weekend and stopped in at the Grandma Moses Museum. In addition to the Grandma Moses things the museum has a hodge podge of old curiosities on the second floor. Imagine my surprise to see an entire case full of lace related things. There was a pillow, a "lacemaker's lamp" which looked like a carafe with a candle behind it, and numerous pieces of lace. The descriptions were very creditable. I was quite pleasantly surprised. When I asked about the display in the gift store the woman corrected my term "bobbin lace pillow" by informing me that it was actually a tatting pillow, so I knew she hadn't written the descriptions. Does anyone know anything about the history of this display? Devon
